While researching Telnet, I found that it does use Unix commands (see
http://www.aota.net/Telnet/index.php4). Perhaps this is because Telnet predates
the TCP/IP protocol that is so common now (see
http://www.ics.uci.edu/~rohit/IEEE-L7-v2.html).

Ok... Let's try that agian with a subject line this time.
At http://www.elated.com/tutorials/management/unix/basic/ I found out that the
basic commands used in telnet are actually in the same format as the command
line commands for my family's old Amiga computer in the 80s/90s. Telnet must
be Unix-based, because the Unix system seems to have taken over the old
structure, commands, and abilities of Amiga computers.
I logged on to the Library of Congress website using telnet at
telnet://140.147.254.3. There I found that telnet doesn't always display what
you have typed into the console. So if you feel you mistyped a number it's not
easy to verify it without simply pressing enter and finding out what it did.
