When I ran the AIX-supplied telnet out of the box, I found that I was
losing many characters on full screen applications.  I have managed to
compile the tahoe release of telnet and have gotten that working on my
AIX PS/2.  It does not lose characters when it is the only active
process.  If I use the Usability Services to start a couple of copies,
it starts losing a few characters, but not as bad as with AIX telnet.  I
am still looking for an explanation and solution to the problem I am
having with AIX telnet.  The tahoe telnet failed in grand fashion when I
told the host I was a vt100, but it could behave as a dumb ansi terminal
just fine.  -David-
