Are you sure you tested it in MS-DOS 6.22? What did it do? I don't see
how it could possibly work as I'm pretty sure than this is a Winsock
program.

Telnet is not a console program, it is a GDI application. Maybe you are
refering to FTP, PING, and TRACERT. Which are 32-bit console
applications. The telnet program that I use is a console application, I
use it because it allows me to use fullscreen character mode like a telnet
session should be.
