Personally, I recommend the sptnet32 telnet package. It can be found on
wuarchive.wustl.edu somewhere. It does color, arrow keys, and other things
properly and actually has a scroll buffer in case you want to see what
scrolled by too fast to notice. The three key ingredients to a decent
telnet package :)
