Kelley" To: ntemacs-users@cs.washington.edu Subject: console rlogin client Date: Mon, 5 Aug 1996 09:10:26 -0400 Since there seems to be no console telnet client that works with Emacs, I'll mention a console rlogin client that does, sort of: ftp.the.net:/pub/mirrors/microlib.cc.utexas.edu/nt/tcpip/nrlogind.zip. I installed rlogin.exe, and modified my startup file to include: ;; for rlogin (setq rlogin-directory-tracking-mode nil) (defun my-rlogin-hook () (setq comint-process-echoes t)) (setq rlogin-mode-hook 'my-rlogin-hook) Presto, M-x rlogin works. Glitches I observed: * Prompt is echoed. * Gets confused with interactive commands like line-mode ftp. Source is included in the release, so perhaps someone with more initiative and time than I have can fix these problems. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ David W.
