The Telnet client may be used in debugging network services such as SMTP, IRC, HTTP, FTP or POP3, to issue commands to a server and examine the responses. [16] For example, Telnet client applications can establish an interactive TCP session to a port other than the Telnet server port.
Many computer protocols, such as telnet, include a NOP command that a client can issue to request a response from the server without requesting any other actions. Such a command can be used to ensure the connection is still alive or that the server is responsive. A NOOP command is part of the following protocols (this is a partial list): telnet ...
Expect is used to automate control of interactive applications such as Telnet, FTP, passwd, fsck, rlogin, tip, SSH, and others. [3] Expect uses pseudo terminals (Unix) or emulates a console (Windows), starts the target program, and then communicates with it, just as a human would, via the terminal or console interface. [4]
Looking glasses are web scripts directly connected to routers' admin interfaces such as telnet and SSH. [1] These scripts are designed to relay textual commands from the web to the router and print back the response. They are often implemented in Perl, [3] PHP, [4] [5] and Python, [6] [7] and are publicly available on GitHub.
In January 2005, Boris Maisuradze, together with Yutaka Hirata, started the TeraTerm Support forum where they answered questions from Tera Term users. Posting in this forum was the best way to suggest new features for Tera Term or propose new commands for the Tera Term Macro language.
A dictd server can be used from Telnet. For example, to connect to the DICT server on localhost, on a Unix system one can normally type: telnet localhost dict and then enter the command "help" to see the available commands. The standard dictd package also provides a "dict" command for command-line use. More sophisticated DICT clients include: cURL
Curses is designed to facilitate GUI-like functionality on a text-only device, such as a PC running in console mode, a hardware ANSI terminal, a Telnet or SSH client, or similar. Curses-based software is software whose user interface is implemented through the curses library, or a compatible library (such as ncurses ).
Pseudoterminals as they are used by script unix command that records user's input for replaying it later.. In some operating systems, including Unix-like systems, a pseudoterminal, pseudotty, or PTY is a pair of pseudo-device endpoints (files) which establish asynchronous, bidirectional communication channel (with two ports) between two or more processes.
