This is a known problem with the 0.3.1 release. The Lua plugin in that
version does not work on 10.2, and fails to load without even an error
message.

Temporary solution:

1. Download the previous version of MudWalker at:

  http://mudwalker.cubik.org/files/MudWalker-030-bin.dmg

2. For both the old and new versions, Control-click on them and select
"Show Package Contents". 

3. Within these windows, go to the "PlugIns" folder inside the
"Contents" folder.

4. Copy "Lua.mwplug" from the old version to the new version.
