Setting Telnet/iX Client Values
You can set particular Telnet/iX Client variables to specific values using
the SET command. See Chapter 2, “Telnet/iX Client Commands,” for a
summary of the variables that can be set using this command. For

You can use the DISPLAY command to verify the new value of the
escape character.
Toggling Telnet/iX Client Values
You can also toggle particular Telnet/iX Client values using the TOGGLE
command. See Chapter 2, “Telnet/iX Client Commands,” for a summary
of the variables that can be toggled using this command. For example,
to enable carriage return mode from its default disabled state (FALSE),
type the following at the telnet> prompt:
telnet> TOGGLE CRMOD
