If telnet is invoked without arguments, it enters command mode, indicated by its prompt, telnet>. In this mode, it accepts and executes its associated commands. See , , below. If it is invoked with arguments, it performs an open command with those arguments. If for example a host is specified as @hop1@hop2@host , the connection goes through hosts hop1 and hop2 , using loose source routing to end at host . If a leading ! is used, the connection follows strict source routing. Note that when telnet uses IPv6, it can only use loose source routing, and the connection ignores the !. Once a connection has been opened, telnet enters input mode. In this mode, text typed is sent to the remote host. The input mode entered will be either "line mode", "character at a time", or "old line by line", depending upon what the remote system supports. In "line mode", character processing is done on the local system, under the control of the remote system. When input editing or character echoing is to be disabled, the remote system will relay that information. The remote system will also relay changes to any special characters that happen on the remote system, so that they can take effect on the local system. In "character at a time" mode, most text typed is immediately sent to the remote host for processing. In "old line by line" mode, all text is echoed locally, and (normally) only completed lines are sent to the remote host. The "local echo character" (initially ^E) may be used to turn off and on the local echo. (Use this mostly to enter passwords without the password being echoed.). If the "line mode" option is enabled, or if the localchars toggle is TRUE (the default in "old line by line" mode), the user's quit, intr, and flush characters are trapped locally, and sent as TELNET protocol sequences to the remote side. If "line mode" has ever been enabled, then the user's susp and eof are also sent as TELNET protocol sequences. quit is then sent as a TELNET ABORT instead of BREAK. The options toggle autoflush and toggle autosynch cause this action to flush subsequent output to the terminal (until the remote host acknowledges the TELNET sequence); and to flush previous terminal input, in the case of quit and intr. While connected to a remote host, the user can enter telnet command mode by typing the telnet escape character (initially ^]). When in command mode, the normal terminal editing conventions are available. Pressing RETURN at the telnet command prompt causes telnet to exit command mode. http://web.cps.msu.edu/cgi-bin/man2html?telnet?1?/usr/man I use telnet to register to MSU for classes. MSU have menus that makes it easy.however it's manually done using keyboard, no mouse :-( Regards, Phil Nguyen oooo$$$$$$$$$$$$oooo oo$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$o oo$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$o o$ $$ o$ o $ oo o$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$o $$ $$ $$o$ oo $ $ "$ o$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$o $$$o$$o$ "$$$$$$o$ o$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$o $$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ """$$$ "$$$""""$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ "$$$ $$$ o$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ "$$$o o$$" $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$o $$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$" "$$$$$$ooooo$$$$o o$$$oooo$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ o$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$"$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$"""""""" """" $$$$ "$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$" o$$$ "$$$o """$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$"$$" $$$ $$$o "$$""$$$$$$"""" o$$$ $$$$o o$$$" "$$$$o o$$$$$$o"$$$$o o$$$$ "$$$$$oo ""$$$$o$$$$$o o$$$$"" ""$$$$$oooo "$$$o$$$$$$$$$""" ""$$$$$$$oo $$$$$$$$$$ """"$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$" "$$$"""" SMILE! -- Binary/unsupported file stripped by Ecartis -- -- Type: image/gif -- File: image001.gif
