title: How can I see what I am typing in telnet?
body: <p>When using telnet by using the command:</p>
  
  <pre><code>telnet &lt;host ip&gt; &lt;port&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I can connect but then I cannot see what I am typing. </p>
  
  <p>So I try:</p>
  
  <pre><code>telnet
  set localecho
  open &lt;host ip&gt; &lt;port&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But this time it just hangs with the message:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Connecting to &lt;host ip&gt;...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How can I use telnet successfully after setting localecho?</p>
