A MUSH is basically a TinyMUD with a lot of modifications.  Several things that
a MUSH adds:
(1) You can @force items you own to do things.
(2) Much more liberal @teleport laws.
(3) New fields (@[o]drop, @[o]kill, @listen, @a[a/m]hear, et al.) for objects 
    and anything else that can use them.
(4) V-functions. these are a way of storing information and making user-defined
    commands for various rooms, objects, etc.
(5) Puppets (items that can relay information to you)
(6) You can enter objects and people
(7) Many other things that I can't think of or don't want to explain right now.

Hope this helps somewhat.
