I use MUSHclient. A few things I've done so far are:
-Adapted a health bar plugin to display my hp/mp/mv in color-coded bars (eg. it goes from bright green to dark red in various shades as I lose health).
-Made a sidebar to keep track of all of my affects and color-code them accordingly when they drop so they can be renewed. In the midst of quickly scrolling screens (battle, travel, etc.) I tend to miss some things, but it's quite obvious when something drops with my sidebar.
-An Alduk/Identify parser to convert IDs to my master spreadsheet for searching and sorting. Can handle both equipment and preps.
-Various other custom triggers and aliases.
Some time ago I made a plugin to keep track of current inventory and equipment in a separate window, but I lost it so I'll need to recode it.
I figured I would start sharing some tricks here and eventually post some plugins. Most of my stuff is in one giant .lua file so it will take a bit of time to reorganize it into standalone plugins. In the end, though, all these things make my gameplay more efficient. Less time typing long commands, score, affects, inv, eq, etc. and more time focused on what my character is doing. Not to claim I'm any good at PK though...
Feel free to share your tricks as well and maybe we can eventually make this sticky-worthy! :)
