100% agree phigan. It would be best if it was an argument e.g. telnet /utf, or at least configurable as default in the MTCP.CFG file with optional switch.

Little stuff like that does bug me (like why the only action of the pgup key is to scroll up the buffer, rather than send pgup to the console).

So, if you see him some day, let him know us bbs'ers want it!

Cheers,
