I don't know why it works, since rlogin's doc string says
(rlogin INPUT-ARGS &optional BUFFER)
...
The variable `rlogin-explicit-args' is a list of arguments to give to
the rlogin when starting. They are added after any arguments given in
INPUT-ARGS.
and plink says
Usage: plink [options] address@hidden [command]
i.e. that plink's options have to precede the host, whereas rlogin passes
rlogin-explicit-args after it. But it does work (meaning my commands are
properly highlited in the *rlogin-HOST* buffer and M-p inserts the previous
command at the proper point in the buffer):
(let ((rlogin-program "c:/Program Files/PuTTY 0.58/PLINK.EXE")
(rlogin-explicit-args '("-telnet")))
(rlogin "solaris.example.com"))
Thank!
