Yeah, that drops ansi.  I found cygwin's telnet client and can almost get it
to work.  I've got the linux telnet client working from debian, but the same
command line doesn't have as good of a display.  I'm trying to get everything
working under Windows and get rid of my linux vm which is just hogging
resources to support ssh.  I'm wondering what command line I need to use with
cygwin's telnet to support ansi properly through an ansi terminal.  It's
almost identical to the linux terminal, but I can't quite figure it out.  I'm
sure it's a commandline option.  I'm closer.  I have the same results with
plink.exe.  I'm wondering if the --binary and --binary-output options might
help.
