Thanks guys.

I did notice how impossible it was to cut/paste using windows.

And the reason that it specified by name in the wiki is that it doesn’t do proper vt52 emulation, so when you use a full-screen editor like nano, the screen gets corrupted on windows, whereas it works fine in putty.

That’s the reason it’s specified in the wiki that way.

But for most stuff, like diddling around on the console, windows telnet works fine.
