    When telnet_gate tried to connect to an IP and there doesn't appear to be a working service answering, the escape command doesn't work, so you cannot exit. If this connect be fixed for some reason, I'd like a timeout adding to telnet_gate so the connection will abort after, say, 10 seconds rather 30 or 60.Example:$ telnet fatemud.com 7004Trying 77.169.25.25...This IP is stuck trying. If I use telnet_gate then I cannot abort the connection.
