&gt;&gt; &gt; Nothing much there by default, huh? I guess I should forget about it
&gt;&gt; &gt; then. I just sort of assumed that your run-of-the mill 'telnet' program
&gt;&gt; &gt; would support the full set of telnet options!
&gt;&gt; 
&gt;&gt; *thinks hard* As I recall from when I was fooling around with writing a
&gt;&gt; 'normal' text mud client, telnet is just a byte stream with ocassional
&gt;&gt; telnet codes which do something, although I'm not sure what. 

Its a full negotiated protocol of codes, and rather compelx and complete...

You can find the RFC at the Magic archive. There is a very nice
state-machine absed implementation method described ina  followup ERFC 

A warning though: I implemented a FULL telnet serevr in my MUD awhiel back
ONLy to find that almost NO program that calls itself "telnet" on a PC
really FOLLOWS the damn RFC.


 It's a 0xff
&gt;&gt; character followed by two bytes of code data; all I did was ignore it.
&gt;&gt; As I recall very few of these are defined for stock telnet anyhow, I think
&gt;&gt; it was designed to be some sort of expansion thing which never got used,
&gt;&gt; or at least by anything interesting.
&gt;
&gt;Slightly off topic, but also perhaps slightly related, there is a socket
&gt;implementation that does most of the extra telnet negotiation stuff: 
&gt;
&gt;NetServe -- <A  HREF="http://www.dtc.rankxerox.co.uk/~robin/netserve.html">http://www.dtc.rankxerox.co.uk/~robin/netserve.html</A>
&gt;
&gt;I've intentions of using it when I finally get down to coding.  It seems
&gt;quite clear and complete, and having it do all the telnet stuff gives a few
&gt;added perks.  I think it also does user ident too, FWIW.
