{ \f1\fs18\b\sb120 About KINSole}
\par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 {\b KINSole} is our {\i Win32} implementation of client side of the {\i telnet} protocol described in details in the {\uldb {\b RFC854}}{\v %!ExecFile("http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc854.txt")} and related RFCs (namely {\uldb {\b RFC855}}{\v %!ExecFile("http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc855.txt")}, {\uldb {\b RFC857}}{\v %!ExecFile("http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc857.txt")}, {\uldb {\b RFC1091}}{\v %!ExecFile("http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1091.txt")}, {\uldb {\b RFC1073}}{\v %!ExecFile("http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1073.txt")}, {\uldb {\b RFC1572}}{\v %!ExecFile("http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1572.txt")} and others). It uses {\i Win32} console and, therefore, can be run both windowed and in fullscreen mode.

{ \f1\fs18\b\sb120 What's New}
+\par\pard\plain\f1\fs24\qc\cf2\b 1.1.1 - August 6th, 2005
+\par\pard\plain\fi0\li0\f1\fs18 \bullet Fixed uninstall procedure so that it works on XP
\par\pard\plain\f1\fs24\qc\cf2\b 1.1 - July 11th, 2004
\par\pard\plain\fi0\li0\f1\fs18 \bullet No changes in code. License change.
\par\pard\plain\f1\fs24\qc\cf2\b 1.00 Beta 2 - March 7th, 1998
\par\pard\plain\fi0\li0\f1\fs18 \bullet Better copying from {\b KINSole} window.
\par\pard\plain\fi0\li0\f1\fs18 \bullet Better handling of cursor position when resizing window.
\par\pard\plain\fi0\li0\f1\fs18 \bullet Sending {\b CR/LF} pair when pressing {\b ENTER}. This is of help when telnetting to non-telnet ports.
\par\pard\plain\fi0\li0\f1\fs18 \bullet Corrected bug, preventing {\b KINSole} from pasting text to remote twice.
\par\pard\plain\fi0\li0\f1\fs18 \bullet Improved handling of echoing. Previously {\b KINSole} didn't turn echo off on some systems, namely {\b Solaris}.
\par\pard\plain\fi0\li0\f1\fs18 \bullet Typo causing {\b KINSole} not to show diamond characters in {\b VT10x} mode corrected.
\par\pard\plain\fi0\li0\f1\fs18 \bullet {\b GPF} when invoking {\b KINSole} with {\b -t} option fixed.
\par\pard\plain\fi0\li0\f1\fs18 \bullet Hotkey ({\b Alt-INS}) for copy operation added. Not supposed to work under {\b\cf6 Windows NT}.
\par\pard\plain\fi0\li0\f1\fs18 \bullet {\b Paste} is made aware of local echoing.
\par\pard\plain\fi0\li0\f1\fs18 \bullet Default terminal type when telnetting to non-telnet port is now {\b TTY}.
\par\pard\plain\fi0\li0\f1\fs18 \bullet {\b Timing Mark} telnet option ({\uldb {\b RFC860}}{\v %!ExecFile("http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc860.txt")}) implemented ({\b Alt-T}).
\par\pard\plain\fi0\li0\f1\fs18 \bullet Improved handling of window icon when starting from other {\i Win32} command line application.

\par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 Available options are:\pard

\par\sa120\sb120\qj\f1\fs16 Note: Changing of console's screenbuffer size either from command line or on remote host's request (ESC[?3h vt100/vt102 control sequence) may not work when in fullscreen mode.
\par \fi0\li0 \bullet {\b -l {\i username}} - Pass username to remote server in environment if remote server allows.
\par \fi0\li0 \bullet {\b -e {\i var}={\i val}} - Pass environment variable to remote server.
\par \fi0\li0 \bullet {\b -v {\i var}={\i val}} - Pass user environment variable to remote server.
\par \fi0\li0 \bullet {\b -t {\i termtype}} - Change preferred terminal type to pass to remote server. This option does not really force specific terminal emulation. Final decision on terminal type is left up to server. Both sides are supposed to negotiate terminal type when connecting so that both sides may feel satisfied. Default preference is {\b vt102}.\pard

\par\sa120\sb120\qj\pard \f1\fs18\sb120 While running {\b KINSole} you may use these key combinations:\pard
\par \fi0\li0 \bullet {\b Alt-X/Alt-Q} - Terminate telnet session and leave {\b KINSole}.
\par \fi0\li0 \bullet {\b Alt-Y} - Send {\b AYT (Are You There)} telnet command. Remote host (if it supports telnet protocol as it's supposed to) should provide you with visible/printable/audible feedback stating that it's alive. You may want to use it when running program which takes unusually long time to finish and you suspect that your connection is dead.
\par \fi0\li0 \bullet {\b Shift-INS} Paste text from Windows Clipboard.
\par \fi0\li0 \bullet {\b Ctrl-Break} Send {\b IP (Interrupt Process)} telnet command. Usually effectively equivalent to Ctrl-C, but it's up to server to decide what to do in each case.
\par \fi0\li0 \bullet {\b Alt-INS} - Invoke {\b copying} from {\b KINSole} screen buffer.
\par \fi0\li0 \bullet {\b Alt-T} - Send {\b TIMING-MARK} request. As soon as response comes {\b KINSole} will flash window thrice or beep if window handle is not available for some reason.\pard

\par \fi0\li0 \bullet Only two terminal emulation modules are included in this release - one for dumb terminal and one for vt100/102. If you try to select ANSI terminal type vt100 emulation will be selected, which is actually close enough to ANSI so you shouldn't suffer too much. Why would one want to use ANSI terminal emulation, anyway?
\par \fi0\li0 \bullet Telnet {\b LINEMODE} option ({\uldb {\b RFC1184}}{\v %!ExecFile("http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1184.txt")}) is still to come.
