+ Description
+ -----------
+
+ Net::Telnet allows you to make client connections to a TCP port
+ and do network I/O, especially with a port using the TELNET
+ protocol. Simple I/O methods such as print, get, and getline are
+ provided. More sophisticated interactive features are provided
+ because connecting to a TELNET port ultimately means communicating
+ with a program designed for human interaction. Some interactive
+ features include the ability to specify a timeout and to wait for
+ patterns to appear in the input stream, such as the prompt from a
+ command interpreter.
