E[SCAPE] | The SEND ESCAPE command sends the TELNET escape | ||||||
| character as a data character to the remote node. Normally, the | ||||||
| TELNET escape character is removed from any data sent to the | ||||||
| remote node. The SEND ESCAPE command is needed and | ||||||
| helpful when you do need to send the escape character as a data | ||||||
| character. | ||||||
| If the application program running on the remote system | ||||||
| requires you to input the current escape character, you can do | ||||||
| one of two things: | ||||||
| D Change the escape character for the duration of the | ||||||
| program with the ESCAPE command. | ||||||
| D Press the escape character to return to the TELNET | ||||||
| prompt (TELNET>), then use SEND ESCAPE to send the | ||||||
| escape character as input to the remote application | ||||||
| program. (See example below.) | ||||||
IN[TERRUPT] | The SEND INTERRUPT command sends the interrupt | ||||||
| character as a data character to the remote node. Normally, the | ||||||
| interrupt character will suspend, interrupt, abort, or terminate | ||||||
| the remote process. The SEND INTERRUPT command is | ||||||
| needed and helpful when you do need to send the interrupt | ||||||
| character as a data character. | ||||||
A[YT] | The SEND AYT command asks the remote node to return | ||||||
| evidence that the TELNET connection is still open. If the | ||||||
| connection is still open, the remote node returns an affirmative | ||||||
| response (e.g., terminal beep, yes, etc.). AYT stands for •Are | ||||||
| you there?" | ||||||
B[REAK] | The SEND BREAK command invokes a break at the remote | ||||||
| node. This command is equivalent to pressing the | BREAK | key | ||||
| at the remote node. | ||||||
IP | The SEND IP command sends an interrupt to the remote | ||||||
| node. This command is equivalent to pressing the interrupt | ||||||
| character ( |
| CONTROL | Y) at the remote node. |
STATUS
Displays the current state of the TELNET connection.
