Subject: Re: Stuck with Telnet still

Hi

Hmm that doesnt work, I have to keep my finger on the return key to see
the server repsonse and it all comes out in a 1 character wide space -
each time I hit return it shows me another character.

I\'m on a windows platform - did this code work for you ?

The only change I see was that you regex for quit - and break on that.
Which doesn\'t
help much unfortunately

Appreciated anyway 

Kingsley
