I use picocom. It's got enough command line switches to
warrant a shell script to launch it.
Will convert line endings on the fly; supports ascii-xfr.
I use it to talk to microcontrollers via USART or USB
(CDC/ACM stuff).
I have no idea if it'll telnet or ssh.
Sometimes I'll try tinyfugue by .. I don't remember .. at
some point I'm pretty sure I need to be listening for telnet
inbound connections to use tinyfugue effectively (because it
was designed to talk to telnet destinations such as LambdaMOO).
So I probably /world localhost or similar to telnet to the
(Linux) locahost. When I get a shell prompt (split screen,
like IRSSI for example) I can then ssh out to a BBS on the
Internet.
SCREEN is great if you have a shell account on someone else's
machine, because of the detach/attach feature; it lets you
stay logged into a BBS that doesn't time out your session,
even when your modem has dropped carrier (including shutting
down a DSL modem for any reason you may want to do so).
