  24 ;;; Commentary:
  25
  26 ;; This mode is intended to be used for telnet or rsh to a remode host;
  27 ;; `telnet' and `rsh' are the two entry points.  Multiple telnet or rsh
  28 ;; sessions are supported.
  29 ;;
  30 ;; Normally, input is sent to the remote telnet/rsh line-by-line, as you
  31 ;; type RET or LFD.  C-c C-c sends a C-c to the remote immediately;
  32 ;; C-c C-z sends C-z immediately.  C-c C-q followed by any character
  33 ;; sends that character immediately.
  34 ;;
  35 ;; All RET characters are filtered out of the output coming back from the
  36 ;; remote system.  The mode tries to do other useful translations based
  37 ;; on what it sees coming back from the other system before the password
  38 ;; query.  It knows about UNIX, ITS, TOPS-20 and Explorer systems.
  39
  40 ;;; Code:
  41
  42 ;; to do fix software types for lispm:
  43 ;; to eval current expression.  Also to try to send escape keys correctly.
  44 ;; essentially we'll want the rubout-handler off.
  45
  46 ;; filter is simplistic but should be okay for typical shell usage.
  47 ;; needs hacking if it is going to deal with asynchronous output in a sane
  48 ;; manner
