    The tip tunnel.. · 025a6441

    Essentially tip, but instead of presenting a tty, it opens a tunnel port that (for instance)
    telnet can talk to. Example (on credit):
    
    tiptunnel /var/log/tiplogs/pc1.acl telnet
    
    Will open up a local port then fork/exec telnet with "localhost" and the tunnel port number as arguments.
    (Functionally equivalent to "tip pc1", only with telnet escape sequences)
    
    A later version of this program is what users will likely download for the quick-tip-through-the-web scheme.
