Handling of telnet:// and rlogin:// URLs

Clicking on a telnet:// or rlogin:// URL link in a web page will launch the TinyTERM Emulator in the browser with the connection specified in the URL. This way the telnet:// or rlogin:// functions just like a http:// link, where the user browses to the next html page. The auto connect is enabled and the connection process occurs as soon as the emulator appears in the browser.

This feature can be disabled by choosing the "Display as standalone" option in the "OLE active Telnet and Rlogin" options section of the OLE Settings dialog. In this case, the emulator is activated as a standalone windows program.

NOTE: To reestablish the windows default telnet:// and rlogin:// URL handlers use the /undourlhelper command line option: tt.exe /undourlhelper This happens quietly, i.e. it does not launch the emulator.

The TinyTERM Emulator replaces the windows default windows registration of URL:telnet and URL:rlogin upon installation.
