Telnet: mode character

[j773303]

While Telnet, it can be press CTRL+] to set the "mode character" or "mode line" , does anyone knows is it possible set "mode character" in the other configuration file or telnet can add some option to set mode, that don't need press CTRL+] again ? Thanks.

sttty -a

displays current settings.

man stty will tell you how to set them.

It should be possible.

Can you show me what parameter set the mode char or mode line in the stty ? Thanks in advance.

Hmmm,

Best I know you can only choose on telnet invocation between ^] and ^[

The default being ^], use switch -ce for which is equal ^].

fwiw,

Hi,
Default telnet sessions parameters are as:

Escape Character is 'CTRL+]'
WILL AUTH (NTLM Authentication)
LOCAL_ECHO off
Sending both CR & LF
WILL TERM TYPE

Preferred Term Type is ANSI
Negotiated Term Type is ANSI

You can set following telnet session parameters using set command:

NTLM Turn ON NTLM Authentication.
LOCAL_ECHO Turn ON LOCAL_ECHO.
TERM x (where x is ANSI, VT100, VT52, or VTNT)
CRLF Send both CR and LF
