Thanks to everyone who made some suggestions. The more minor edits have been made, but I haven't added any of the threads I missed because doing a long stretch of Emacs editing in this lame Windows terminal program will drive me insane, so I just posted the summary to python-list.

yes. I use "Tera Term Pro" with the SSH extensions. That gives me an excellent Telnet app, and it gives me SSH. I have never had a problem with it. [ initially, there is a little tweakiness with creating the "known_hosts" file, but you just hit "continue" and everything is fine after that. ] Tera Term Pro can be downloaded from some .jp address. I think there is a 16-bit vs 32-bit program. I use the latter. The SSL stuff is located in Oz, me thinks. I've got it on the laptop. Great stuff. Cheers, -g -- Greg Stein, http://www.lyra.org/
