Second attempt, feedback is welcome, also I will try to get the
location mentioned (lavachat.psyced.org/unix/) to host a patched
powwow.scm for guix and also on one of my domains as soon as I
have a webserver back.

     (description
      "POWWOW is a client software which can be used for telnet as well as for
-@dfn{Multi-User Dungeon} (MUD).  Additionally it can serve as a nice client for
-the chat server psyced with the specific config located at
-http://lavachat.symlynx.com/unix/";)
+@dfn{Multi-User Dungeon} (MUD).  Additionally it can be used for chat servers
+(for example psyced.org) if you keep in mind that ';' is the predefined command
+separating character.  To work around this, you need to use a patched version of
+POWWOW.  You have to alter the following in the defines.h file:
+ #define CMDSEP ';'. For further sources you can take a look at
+http://lavachat.symlynx.com/unix/ which contains a patched version of POWWOW.")
