PC-NFS includes a built-in VT-100 type emulator.  This allows the user to
login to a host via the Ethernet or the PC RS-232C com port using the
Telnet and TCP/IP protocols.

I believe the Telnet program can be run as a memory-resident "pop-up"
program.

I don't work with for the division responsible for PC-NFS, I just read the
sales guides.  These are my opinions, not my employer's.
