  • Telnet Menu Item functions

    Can someone help with functions available in the Mystic Telnet Menu Command 'IT'? For example, in NetRunner, if I want to disconnect this can be done with ALT-D (disconnect). How would I do this (and other functions) in the Mystic Telnet window?

    Thanks in advance!

    I don't have it setup to test but when you connect I think it tells you
    to press CTRL+] to "escape" the session.

    Thanks g00r00!

    We are calling the IT command from an MPL script and the CTRL+] does not appear to work for us. Connection and use of the bbs throught IT works fine in all other regards. Could this be because it is being called from an MPL script?

    Thanks again!

    You're right it seems like something is wrong there. It only works from a local login on the Windows version. I will have to look into it more.
