toggle Command
argument
specifies the name of the toggle control you want to change. You can abbreviate
the name to the letters required to uniquely identify the toggle. The following table
describes each toggle and its initial setting when you start TELNET.
The special characters used by the localchars toggle are:
Argument Function
autoflush
Determines whether output is flushed when you send interrupt (intr)
characters. If both autoflush and localchars are on when you enter
the ao, intr, or quit character, the TELNET client does not display any
data until the remote system acknowledges (with a TELNET Timing
Mark option) that it has processed the TELNET sequence you sent.
The initial setting is ON.
autosynch
Determines whether the TELNET SYNCH sequence is sent. If both
autosynch and localchars are on when you enter an intr character,
the TELNET client sends the SYNCH sequence and previously typed
data is flushed. The initial setting is OFF.
crmod
Controls carriage return mode (crmod). When crmod is on, carriage
return characters received from the remote system are mapped into a
carriage return followed by a line feed (unless a line feed is sent
also). This mode is useful only if the remote system sends carriage
returns but not line feeds. The initial setting is OFF.
localchars
Controls the local recognition of special characters and their transfor-
mation into appropriate TELNET sequences. The initial setting of the
localchars toggle is OFF. When localchars is ON, you can enter a
special character to send the related TELNET sequence to the
remote system. The initial setting is OFF.
netdata
When netdata is on, all network data is displayed in hexadecimal for-
mat. This toggle is useful for debugging. The initial setting is OFF.
options
When options is on, internal TELNET protocol processing that relates
to TELNET options is displayed. This toggle is useful for debugging.
The initial setting is OFF.
Name Keys Function
echo
^E * In line-input mode, turns on or off the display (echoing) of
characters you are entering. This character is useful when
you are entering a password.
eof
^Y In line-input mode, sends this character to the remote sys-
tem (if eof is the first character entered on the line).
erase
^H In character-input mode, sends the TELNET EC (erase
character) sequence to the remote system.
escape
^] Sends the TELNET escape character. You use these keys
to call up the TELNET prompt for TELNET command
mode. See TELNET Commands
on page 9-9.
flushoutput
^O Sends the TELNET AO (abort output) sequence to the
remote system.
