 ** DONE Implement support for telnet entries

 Similar to http entries, telnet entries will be handled by code
 external to elpher. However it seems I made http entry handling a
 special case, and I don't want another!  So the only option is to

-3. Only one elpher buffer can exist at one time.

+to iron out.
