Windows Telnet
Yes it's still available, Microsoft just makes you install it now. Fair warning-- it is the least recommended option. It's horrible at formatting ASCII text, and by default local echo is off (you can't see what you are typing), but if it's what you want, here it is. To install,
Open a command prompt (as administrator) and run the following command:
dism /online /Enable-Feature /FeatureName:TelnetClient

OR From windows control panel:
Go to Control Panel / Programs / Turn Windows Features on or off -- select the checkbox next to TELNET Client
Once one of the above steps is completed, from a command prompt, Enter:
telnet fierymud.org 4000
