+ The <c>nodelay</c> option used to be enabled
+ (<c>true</c>) by default for sockets opened by the Common
+ Test telnet client. This appeared to cause communication
+ problems with telnet servers on some systems, and
+ therefore the option is no longer used. Its value may
+ instead be specified in the telnet connection settings.
+ See the man page for <c>ct_telnet</c> for details. Please

+ <c>unix_telnet</c> has been updated with an extra
