I know that, after I connect with telnet I can got to command mode and enter 'mode char' to get into character mode. Is there any way to have telnet start up in character mode? I am trying to control a robot through a wireless connection and I need to be in character mode for it to work.

I tried and failed to find a way to do this, and just
use 'm c' after starting telnet ('m line' to go back to
line mode).  You might try netcat (nc) as an alternative
to telnet.

I was using netcat, but it was also using line mode and the vendor for the robot suggeted using telnet in character mode. Is it possible to put netcat into character mode? Automatically, or by internal command?
