Hi Folks,
This prompt statement has been a real pain in the the butt. I am
using net::telnet(v3.03) to connect to a W2K box from a Solaris 2.6
box. I the output stream resulting from a 'dir' command I am getting
control characters and a line-feed. Here is an example from the
input_log:

8 File(s) 1,158,580 bytes

Z:\>^[[24;1H
^[[23;5H
Any Ideas on how to construct a $tn->prompt() statement to handle it?
It seems to only way to get the line-feed is to use "(dbl-quotes), but
the docs say to use '(single quotes). BTW, the ctrl characters are
not always consistant, but at least the form is the same ^[[99;9H
I can get the listing using 'ls -l' (without the funky
cntl-characters), but would like to use 'dir' so I don't have do a
bunch of extra processing to convert the date for newer files(< 6
months old).
Thanks,
Pete
