in reply to Telnet Modes

This may be implementation specific, but have you tried setting $| to some non-zero value? Per the Camel book (and other sources such as perldocs):

If set to nonzero, forces an fflush(3) after every write or print on the currently selected output channel.

I haven't tested it in the context of telnet, but it might be worth giving it a whirl.

Good luck.

    Er, I'm fairly certain that would only affect the server, I think he's asking about the client.

      Yes. The client will not send data until the \n but the server happily will. I do not believe $| is the issue here.
