When working on a server, sometimes you want to use telnet for something other than telnet, right? Right? Right?
For example, when you want to speak HTTP live, or when you want to speak SMTP, use POP3 (ry).
So, of course,
$ telnet localhost 80
zsh: command not found: telnet
Sorry. At that time, don't panic, don't panic.
$ python -m telnetlib localhost 80
You don't need telnet!
Most Linux environments should have Python installed by default, so don't panic. Try it.
