I can second Tera Term Pro. It is one of the few VT100 emulators that gets the emulation right. Many term program get the emulation wrong, often badly. If you do not have the docs for the VT series terminals a devo will not know the details of how the escape sequences should work and apps will fail. BArry (Ex DEC VT expert)

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.
