Thank you to ...

Sean Watson, Lucio Chiappetti, Yiorgos Adamopoulo, Norman Hill, Carl 
Harris, and Brian Sherwood 

... who all replied so promptly to my call of help. 

The question was how would one pass stdin through a filter to the telnet 
command, so certain key sequences would be interpreted by the filter, 
which would inturn act accordingly.

The answers all agreed that the product I was after to achieve this was 
"Expect" which used Tcl/tk script language. Expect could be found at:
 
		ftp.cme.nist.gov:/pub/expect

Again, thank you all!


Jase.
