Documentation

This mode is for using telnet from a buffer to another host.

It has most of the same commands as comint-mode. There is a variable telnet-interrupt-string which is the character sent to try to stop execution of a job on the remote host. Data is sent to the remote host when RET is typed.

In addition to any hooks its parent mode might have run, this mode runs the hook telnet-mode-hook, as the final or penultimate step during initialization.
