SSLtel    - SSLtelnet for Windows

SSLtel is an implementation of SSLtelnet for Windows based on NCSA Windows 
Telnet BETA3. 

This software is presently at ALPHA release stage ... i.e. it seems to work
okay but certainly is not considered tested and stable. Use it at your
own risk.

The WIN16 version is known to work under the standard TCP/IP WINSOCK 
implementation on the following platforms:
    - Microsoft Windows 3.1, 3.11, 
    - Microsoft Windows for Workgroups
    - Microsoft Windows 95
    - Microsoft Windows NT 3.51

Other WINSOCK implementations may or may not work. 

SSLtel currently requires ASYNC support from the underlying WINSOCK 
implementation for hostname lookups and for network I/O.

The original NCSA Windows Telnet BETA3 was used as a starting point. 
It did not contain the following:
    - telnet option negotiation
    - stable vt100 emulation with scrolling region support
    - decent rendering (the screen painting model was *seriously* flawed)
    - commented code
    - ability to reconnect in the same window without exiting the application
    - decent menu options
    - debug support

Over 90% of the effort involved in getting SSLtel operational was fixing
problems with the starting code base rather than adding in SSL support
using SSLeay-0.6.0.
