| \fBlibtelnet\fP - TELNET protocol processing library |
| |
| .SH SYNOPSIS |
| .PP |
| \fB#include <libtelnet.h>\fP |
| |
| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| .PP |
| \fBlibtelnet\fP is a library for handling the TELNET protocol. It includes |
| routines for parsing incoming data from a remote peer as well as formatting |
| data to send to the remote peer. |
| |
| \fBlibtelnet\fP uses a callback-oriented API, allowing application-specific |
| handling of various events. The callback system is also used for buffering |
| outgoing protocol data, allowing the application to maintain control over the |
| actual socket connection. |
| |
| Features supported include the full TELNET protocol, Q-method option |
| negotiation, ZMP, MCCP2, MSSP, and NEW-ENVIRON. |
