.SH NAME
gaptelnet \- User Interface to the XNS GAP Protocol
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B gaptelnet [host [connection-type]]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Gaptelnet
is used to create a virtual terminal session
with another host using the XNS Gateway Access Protocol,
version 3.
Thus, it can be used to communicate with a Xerox server running Services
8.0, with an XDE workstation running RemoteExec.bcd, with a Xerox ITS, 
with a Berkeley UNIX system running GAP3d,
etc.
.PP
If
.I gaptelnet
is invoked without arguments, it enters command mode,
indicated by its prompt (\fBgaptelnet>\fR).
In this mode, it accepts and executes the commands listed below.
If it is invoked with arguments, it performs an
.I open
command (see below) with those arguments.
.PP
Once a connection has been opened,
.I gaptelnet
enters input mode.
In this mode, text typed is sent to the remote host.  
.CO
To issue
.I gaptelnet
commands when in input mode, precede them with the
.I gaptelnet
escape character (initially ^]).
When in command mode, the normal 
terminal editing conventions are available.
Only enough of each command to uniquely identify it is
needed.
.TP 
.BI open " host [connection-type]"
opens a connection to the named host.  If a connection type
is not specified, 
.I gaptelnet
attempts to contact a GAP server as a system administration service.
Alternatives for connection-type include ``sa'', ``exec'' (for remote
executive'', and ``its'' (for interactive terminal service).
The host specification may be either a host name (e.g.
``CornellS1'' or ``gvax:computer science:cornell-univ'')
or an XNS address.  If domain and organization are unspecified,
they default using
.IR CH.addrs .
.TP
.B close
closes a TELNET session and returns to command mode.
.TP
.B quit
closes any open TELNET session and exits 
.IR gaptelnet .
.TP
.B z
suspends
.IR gaptelnet .
This command only works when the user is using the 
.IR csh (1).
.TP
.BI escape " [escape-char]"
sets the 
.I gaptelnet
escape character.  Control characters may
be specified as 
.B \e^ 
followed by a single
letter (e.g., <control-x> is ^X).
.TP
.B status
prints the current status of 
.IR gaptelnet .
This includes who one is connected to, 
the state of debugging, escape character, etc.
.TP
.B debug
toggles socket level debugging.
.TP
.BI ? [command]
gets help.  Without arguments,
.I gaptelnet
prints a help summary.
If a command is specified, 
.I gaptelnet
prints the help information available about the command only.
.PP
This implementation
is very simple because
.IR rlogin (1C)
is the standard mechanism used to communicate locally 
with hosts.
