ANSI Basic Like Scripting Language and Telnet server


Visual Basic 6, or VB Classic

This code will allow you to run a script like text file with simple commands for full control over a telnet client. This code makes ANSI easy. This code was made in less than 24 hours so it may need further work, if you culd add to it please tell me. I plan on developing it further. Simply run it, then connect to localhost port 23 in an ANSI able telnet client. an example program is included. Please before flaming me on this code you might want to understand and appriciate it.
