SUMMARY
The Telnet client utility that ships with Windows 95 (TELNET.EXE) does not
support mapping characters to Telnet characters. For example, if you use
Telnet to access a UNIX machine, some utilities let you map the BACKSPACE
key to the DELETE key. TELNET.EXE does not provide this functionality.
The Telnet utility that ships with Windows 95 contains the basic features
necessary to have a Telnet session to a host. Most UNIX hosts let you
select the terminal type; therefore, you can overcome any keyboard
incompatibilities.
