-
- This is the official update for Telnet 2.4, and is named Telnet2.4.02. In
- this release, several minor problems under the previous release are fixed.
- Telnet can find a config.tel file in the System Folder, color can be specified
- for each session in config.tel regardless of whether there is a nameserver=
- line, Telnet works fine with Hypercard regardless of whether you have
- option mapped to control, and Monocco fonts are no longer munged.
-

-
- New features not present in version 2.3 include:
-
- % Domain name lookup is now done through the MacTCP resolver, so that Telnet
- is now able to run perfectly with any number of other TCP products
- % Line-mode is supported on supercomputer systems that allow this added
- functionality
- % Tektronix 4105 emulation is supported, which allows color TEK images to
- be displayed
- % Telnet automatically numbers windows upon opening to distinguish multiple
- connections to the same machine
- % Windows can be automatically staggered enough to show the title bar when a
- session is opened
- % The Open-connection dialog box allows copy/pasting when choosing a session
- to open
-
-
- This release also contains many bug fixes, including:
- % Telnet no longer crashes after ftp-ing more than 64 files
- % The cursor doesnt get randomly trashed after some ftp sessions
- * Telnet works correctly on the Mac Portable
- % The numeric keypad is fixed to support vt100 emulation
- % The menus are now highlighted correctly
- % Memory management has been completely overhauled, which prevents Telnet
- from crashing randomly like in previous versions
