How to get correct output when telnet to HP ProCurve

[leeffa]

Hi all

I use a telnet library to connect to device.

And got the output with many strange character,ex:

here i send "enable" command, and got:

enable[?25hE[?25hUsername: [?25h[?25h[?25h

Please tell me how to remove it or display output correctly?

Thanks.

Using telnet from where?  What OS version?  What type of terminal emulation?

It appears you need a xterm?

Please help!!

Hi leffa,

That's normal.

You need to strip off ANSI/VT100 Terminal Control Escape Sequences (i.e. used to position cursor):
