Telnet Protocol
---------------------------
Telnet is a protocol for connecting to a remote server. Unlike ssh, this is not a secure connection. Bombadillo does not have a built-in telnet system but will reach out to the "telnet" application and use it to open telnet connections from inside of Bombadillo. For this feature to work a suitable program must be avialable on the system. For most users this will be "telnet", though Bombadillo does support using other applications via a user configurable setting (see `help settings`).
This proxying of responsibility to a remote program works pretty well, but in some cases has been known to provide buggy output.
-- Telnet URL Structure --
Generally speaking, the following structure will be the most common (though Bombadillo will support any structure that the underlying telnet application supports, so long as the scheme "telnet://" is included at the beginning):
telnet://[host][:port]
