Run it on the server and tell the server to allow it some time to run.

Test all your vars to death before using them. This is going to be difficult
to do without a "goto" command to get out of these situations.

Yes, i just wrote an ansi-ascii mirc-mush translator. You must send the
codes for the colors, and the associated opening and closing tags, that the
mush/mud clients you use expect to see. Having done only one mush, and only
for mirc, i can't say what your system needs to do for the actual codes,
other than look up the olde dos screen codes and try those.
