TelnetNUL

Suppress Telnet NUL at end-of-line for Telnet transmission. Windows systems only.

Synopsis

[Miscellaneous]    TelnetNUL=n

n is either 1 (true) or 0 (false). The default value is 0.

Description

Important:

This parameter has been retained for compatibility, but should not be used when building new applications.

On output, a Telnet network virtual terminal (NVT) performs the following default end-of-line behavior: either issues a carriage return character (CR) followed by a linefeed character (LF), or issues a CR followed by NUL (if no LF is issued). TelnetNUL affects the issuance of the NUL character in the second case. When TelnetNul is enabled (n = 1), the Telnet virtual terminal suppresses the NUL character.

This setting applies only to Windows systems; it is ignored on UNIX®, and Linux configurations, in which Telnet is supplied by the operating system vendor.
