Industry’s First Commercial 32-Bit Console Telnet Client:
InterAccess Console Telnet Client was born out of customer requests. Many complaints about the weakness of the Windows NT Telnet Client made Pragma Systems realize a need for an application like Pragma Console Telnet Client. Pragma Systems, the leader in telnet servers, feels this application is a must for its Pragma TelnetServer. This product was designed to work especially with Pragma TelnetServer. However, the Console Telnet Client package will work great by itself.

Printing support through a telnet session. See Printing Options for more information.
File transfer using ZModem
transfer protocol.
Begin file transfer on server side, then type CTRL-], to activate
Console Client menu options. Choose the appropriate client side
transfer procedure. When the transfer is complete the menu will
display again to choose to exit the menu. A prompt for filename will
be displayed, if the Send option is chosen.
Console Application
Can be run as a console application within Pragma TelnetServer to
connect out to other machines using telnet protocol. This is a big
plus over existing telnet clients which run in a Windows GUI based
window. the Console Telnet Client implements a gateway feature, /G,
allowing the client to strictly negotiate the connection, then
communicate data only, without interpretation.
ANSI, VT100 and extended
keys of VT420 emulation.
When you connect to our Pragma TelnetServer for NT, all of the keys
act just as if you were at a normal DOS command prompt. For example,
in the DOS EDIT program, ALT-F will take you to the File menu.
Support for every terminal type in the world when using the (/G
option) Gateway mode.
Full ANSI Color
This allows the screen to look
just as if you were at a DOS prompt.
User defined ALT key mapping
Using the telnetc.ini file, a user can map the ALT key to any key.
The keywords ESC or CTRL can be added to another key to send a key
combination. For example, ALT=CTRL-A will send the default key
sequence for the Pragma TelnetServer. See More
on telnetc.ini.
Automated
Telnet sessions using the File Redirect feature
The client will read the file given on the command line and
redirect it to the Telnet Server. The script file follows a wait/send syntax,
meaning that server output is sent, when a specified phrase is received.
Designate a phrase to wait for with a WF: as the first 3 characters of the line
To add comments, use a # as the first character of the line Empty lines are
allowed. Any line that has characters, and does not start with either the WF: or
# will be sent to the server.
Special characters can be entered with the following:
\n - line feed
\r - carriage return
\t - tab
To send an empty line to the server enter
the value \r\n.
Here is an example of a file for input:
#wait for username prompt
WF: login name:
#send username
username
#wait for password prompt
WF: password:
#send password
password
#wait for domain prompt
domain:
#send empty line
\r\n
#wait for command prompt
WF: >
#send command to run server side script
runscript
#wait for command prompt to return
WF: >
#exit
exit
Log telnet session output to a
file.
This only logs the printable ASCII
characters.
Terminal window can be resized dynamically by changing the size properties of the console window. Any fonts supported by the console can be chosen.
Can be used to connect to Pragma TelnetServer for NT or any UNIX telnet servers like Solaris, Linux, HP, AIX, BSD/386, etc.
Fully winsock based, full 32-bit multi-threaded.
Runs in all Windows Platforms, including XP and .NET.
