Hm... I just used a normal telnet session in Windows and that took it just fine.
I think that when Dragon is pointed at something that doesn't have extra hooks, it'll do the default thing, which is write what you say in the box. It can't go back and fix words, but it can just write what it thought you said.
Problem is that it uses default Windows control characters for moving about, and sometimes, in Unix sessions, that translates into not-useful things. But the bulk of typing I could still do using Dragon in mush sessions. Plus I did short-cuts like "MUSH act" which would do a : and start lower-case and "MUSH Talk", which would do a " at the beginning of the line.
But there were still problems with it, which is likely why I don't MUSH nearly at all anymore.
Someone suggested SimpleMu. They were right. I'm nwhoot trying to do anything very advanced, just say and pose, and it's working OK. Short-cuts would probably be smart.
