One of our groups is attempting to write a terminal emulator
over Telnet. Please, don't ask me why. Needless to say they
are having a few minor problems. What they have done, so far,
is to write a 'listener' daemon that creates a logical 
connection between the incoming socket and the OS (Interactive
2.2). Everything appears to be fine until they try executing
a application that uses curses.

I don't have time to research the problem for them, or to learn
the Telnet protocols. What I do need is, if it exists, a 
terminal emulator for Telnet.  We don't have ftp capabilities
here at our site but we can download code via uucp.  If anyone
could tell me where to find such a beast, or better yet, would
be willing to e-mail me an example source listing, I would be
forever in their debt.

Much Grass,

AJ
