# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

perl-Net-Telnet: perl-Net-Telnet (interact with TELNET port or other TCP ports)
perl-Net-Telnet:
perl-Net-Telnet: Net::Telnet allows you to make client connections to a TCP port and do
perl-Net-Telnet: network I/O, especially to a port using the TELNET protocol. Simple 
perl-Net-Telnet: I/O methods such as print, get, and getline are provided. More
perl-Net-Telnet: sophisticated interactive features are provided because connecting to 
perl-Net-Telnet: a TELNET port ultimately means communicating with a program designed 
perl-Net-Telnet: for human interaction. These interactive features include the ability
perl-Net-Telnet: to specify a time-out and to wait for patterns to appear in the input
perl-Net-Telnet: stream, such as the prompt from a shell.
