[ this is probably the coolest telnet client for os/2 and win32 =) ]
features:
x zmodem
x ansi, vt100
x phonebook
x color backscroll
x its free!
mtel.exe = os/2 exe
mt32.exe = win32 exe
for key info, hit escape @ the phonebook and then press alt-z
report bugs or feature requests! go to:
x http://ozone.eesc.com/email
to get the latest version, go to:
x http://ozone.eesc.com ( also check out http://dink.org )
** important! **
if you get a "runtime error" - send me the error along with anything else
displayed on that line (a screen capture would help, too!) so I can
investigate. also tell me what you were doing when it happened, i'll try
to fix it a.s.a.p!
faq:
----
q why is is the screen output a bit slower under windows95/98 than nt or
os/2?
a it seems like windows95/98 doesn't give high priority to 32bit console
mode screen writes, theres nothing i can do to speed it up
q what was mtelnet coded in?
a Virtual Pascal v2.0 under OS/2 v4 ( http://www.vpascal.com )
myth: mt32.exe is a dos program.
fact: nope, its a console-mode win32 application.

december 26, 1998 (beta 5)
-----------------
x updated the alt-z help screens
x fixed a problem where ctrl-s, ctrl-d and ctrl-p couldn't be inputted
in the os/2 version
x turned off that annoying flashing mouse cursor in the win32 version
x added new commandline parameters: -q = exit mtelnet after
disconnect, -h = commandline help
x fixed the caps-lock problem in the win32 version where it would
"shift" the numbers/punctuation. (this is actually a bug in the
win32 api: ReadConsoleInput)
x fixed extra linefeeds in vt1xx emulation (most noticably using
"screen" under *nix)
x it now accepts a telnet url-format commandline parameter so you
can use mtelnet with your favorite browser.
x alt-e local echo toggle fixed
x changed the phonebook a bit
x echo problem with COM/IP can be fixed by adding "S1003=7" to the
init string. (this is a bug in COM/IP, not mtelnet!)
october 10, 1998 (beta 4 release #2)

reason i couldn't get it to work with 'paste' on the win95 toolbar..
