Re: Need help on terminal emulation in Cygwin console

Oh, and if anybody wants to try and speed this up, you can download this
-src package

http://cygwin.cwilson.fastmail.fm/ITP/telnet-0.17-1-src.tar.bz2

for the upcoming telnet/telnet-server packages, and try to get it
working.  Current state: the telnet client seems to work just as well as
the inetutils telnet client -- which is to say, it exhibits the same odd
behavior when connected to the (current) inetutils telnetd -- but this
new telnetd is non-functional (coredumps).

However, my gut tells me that the problem is in the telnet client side,
and not the server, so...



Anyway, unpack, edit the cygport to add CFLAGS="-g -O0", and
   cygport ./telnet-0.17-1.cygport prep build
and hack away at the telnet client  (while running the inetutils telnetd).

Bonus...fix this new telnetd so it doesn't coredump, and actually works.
 KThxBye.
