The following TELNET options are supported:
LINEMODE:
The LINEMODE option is supported as per RFC1116. The
FORWARDMASK option is not currently supported.
BINARY: The client has the ability to turn on/off the BINARY
option in each direction. Turning on BINARY from
server to client causes the LITOUT bit to get set in
the terminal driver on both ends, turning on BINARY
from the client to the server causes the PASS8 bit
to get set in the terminal driver on both ends.
TERMINAL-TYPE:
This is supported as per RFC1091. On the server side,
when a terminal type is received, termcap/terminfo
is consulted to determine if it is a known terminal
type. It keeps requesting terminal types until it
gets one that it recognizes, or hits the end of the
list. The server side looks up the entry in the
termcap/terminfo data base, and generates a list of
names which it then passes one at a time to each
request for a terminal type, duplicating the last
entry in the list before cycling back to the beginning.
NAWS: The Negotiate about Window Size, as per RFC 1073.
TERMINAL-SPEED:
Implemented as per RFC 1079
TOGGLE-FLOW-CONTROL:
Implemented as per RFC 1080
TIMING-MARK:
As per RFC 860
SGA: As per RFC 858
ECHO: As per RFC 857
LOGOUT: As per RFC 727
STATUS:
The server will send its current status upon
request. It does not ask for the clients status.
The client will request the servers current status
from the "send getstatus" command.
ENVIRON:
This option is currently being defined by the IETF
Telnet Working Group, and an RFC has not yet been
issued, but should be in the near future...
X-DISPLAY-LOCATION:
This functionality can be done through the ENVIRON
option, it is added here for completeness.
