Try putty: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
Also some combinations of terminal emulator and terminal type don't map the cursor keys, so it is back to "esc" followed by h,j,k or l (for left, down, up, and right). Although I see that more with Unixes proper. The old Windows telnet was naff, incorrectly passing the buffer size as screen size, and other failings, I could never decide if it was deliberate, or incompetence, Hyperterminal is better but then it still carries the name of the software company that wrote it. I use Putty, although sometimes in a Cygwin windows I forget and still run "ssh". Anyone deciphered what keyboard settings are in effect with Cygwin, and Openssh, as "|" doesn't map onto the required pipe character although it looks okay in Cygwin. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG Mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxx with "unsubscribe list" in the message body to unsubscribe.
