Yeah, most telnet-based services will work with a raw socket 
connection, it's just a few of them (largely BBSes and older 
chat/mud type systems) try to negotiate various telnet protocol 
capabilities and kind of fall flat when you use a raw socket.

It's rare and antiquated enough that I think a Gambas library 
would be sufficient to implement the telnet handshaking rather 
than another class in gb.net.
