Description:
  A standalone telnet daemon for AmigaOS 2.04+ with AmiTCP (or any
  stack that provides bsdsocket.library). Connect from any telnet
  client on your LAN and get an interactive AmigaDOS shell with
  working command execution and output. Hardware-validated on an
  A500 (68000) with AmiTCP_NG 4.1.7.

  Two binaries are included:
    telnetd      - 68000 (stock machines)
    telnetd.020  - 68020/030/040/060 accelerators (compile-verified)

  Usage:
    1> stack 20000
    1> run C:telnetd [PORT <n>] [LOG <file>]

  LOG=<file> writes a crash-surviving forensic trail to any path.

  Handles the Telnet negotiation burst sent by real clients (macOS,
  Linux), serves ACTION_DISK_INFO console probes so pagers such as
  More work, detects disconnects instantly even while a command
  runs, and tears sessions down cleanly.

  Known limitations:
    - One connection at a time; reconnect after a disconnect takes
      a few seconds (~7.6s measured)
    - Each disconnected session leaves one idle shell process
      behind until the next reboot
    - Full-screen/raw console tools and GUI programs (ed, edit on
      many setups) are not usable over telnet
    - No authentication, plaintext: LAN use only, never forward
      this port to the internet

  Architecture follows the approach of telnetd 2.0 (Peter Simons &
  Steve Holland, 1995), reimplemented for AmiTCP_NG. No code from
  the GPLv2 original is used. MIT license, source available:
