DISPLAY command.

Setting TELNET/iX Client Values 

You can set particular TELNET/iX Client variables to specific values
using the SET command.  See Chapter 3 for a summary of the variables that
can be set using this command.  For example, to set the escape character
to [CTRL]-C, type the following at the telnet> prompt: 

     telnet> SET ESCAPE [CTRL]-C

     escape character is `^C'.

You can use the DISPLAY command to verify the new value of the escape
character.

Toggling TELNET/iX Client Values 

You can also toggle particular TELNET/iX Client values using the TOGGLE
command.  See Chapter 3 for a summary of the variables that can be
toggled using this command.  For example, to enable carriage return mode
from its default disabled state (FALSE), type the following at the
telnet> prompt: 

     telnet> TOGGLE CRMOD
     Will map carriage return on output.

You can use the DISPLAY command to verify that carriage return mode is
enabled.
