+\section{\module{telnetlib} ---
+ Telnet client}
+
+\declaremodule{standard}{telnetlib}
+\modulesynopsis{Telnet client class.}
+
+
+The \module{telnetlib} module provides a \class{Telnet} class that
+implements the Telnet protocol. See \rfc{854} for details about the
+protocol.
+
+
+\begin{classdesc}{Telnet}{\optional{host\optional{, port=0}}}
+\class{Telnet} represents a connection to a telnet server. The
+instance is initially not connected; the \method{open()} method must
+be used to establish a connection. Alternatively, the host name and
+optional port number can be passed to the constructor, too.
+
+Do not reopen an already connected instance.
+
+This class has many \method{read_*()} methods. Note that some of them
+raise \exception{EOFError} when the end of the connection is read,
+because they can return an empty string for other reasons. See the
+individual doc strings.
+\end{classdesc}
+
+
+\subsection{Telnet Objects \label{telnet-objects}}
+
+\class{Telnet} instances have the following methods:
+
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{read_until}{expected\optional{, timeout}}
+Read until a given string is encountered or until timeout.
+
+When no match is found, return whatever is available instead,
+possibly the empty string. Raise \exception{EOFError} if the connection
+is closed and no cooked data is available.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{read_all}{}
+Read all data until EOF; block until connection closed.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{read_some}{}
+Read at least one byte of cooked data unless EOF is hit.
+
+Return \code{''} if EOF is hit. Block if no data is immediately available.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{read_very_eager}{}
+Read everything that's possible without blocking in I/O (eager).
+
+Raise \exception{EOFError} if connection closed and no cooked data
+available. Return \code{''} if no cooked data available otherwise.
+Don't block unless in the midst of an IAC sequence.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{read_eager}{}
+Read readily available data.
+
+Raise \exception{EOFError} if connection closed and no cooked data
+available. Return \code{''} if no cooked data available otherwise.
+Don't block unless in the midst of an IAC sequence.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{read_lazy}{}
+Process and return data that's already in the queues (lazy).
+
+Raise \exception{EOFError} if connection closed and no data available.
+Return \code{''} if no cooked data available otherwise. Don't block
+unless in the midst of an IAC sequence.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{read_very_lazy}{}
+Return any data available in the cooked queue (very lazy).
+
+Raise \exception{EOFError} if connection closed and no data available.
+Return \code{''} if no cooked data available otherwise. Don't block.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{open}{host\optional{, port=0}}
+Connect to a host.
+
+The optional second argument is the port number, which
+defaults to the standard telnet port (23).
+
+Don't try to reopen an already connected instance.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{msg}{msg\optional{, *args}}
+Print a debug message, when the debug level is > 0.
+
+If extra arguments are present, they are substituted in the
+message using the standard string formatting operator.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{set_debuglevel}{debuglevel}
+Set the debug level.
+
+The higher it is, the more debug output you get (on sys.stdout).
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{close}{}
+Close the connection.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{get_socket}{}
+Return the socket object used internally.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{fileno}{}
+Return the fileno() of the socket object used internally.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{write}{buffer}
+Write a string to the socket, doubling any IAC characters.
+
+Can block if the connection is blocked. May raise
+socket.error if the connection is closed.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{interact}{}
+Interaction function, emulates a very dumb telnet client.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{mt_interact}{}
+Multithreaded version of \method{interact}.
+\end{methoddesc}
+
+\begin{methoddesc}[Telnet]{expect}{list, timeout=None}
+Read until one from a list of a regular expressions matches.
+
+The first argument is a list of regular expressions, either
+compiled (\class{re.RegexObject} instances) or uncompiled (strings).
+The optional second argument is a timeout, in seconds; default
+is no timeout.
+
+Return a tuple of three items: the index in the list of the
+first regular expression that matches; the match object
+returned; and the text read up till and including the match.
+
+If end of file is found and no text was read, raise
+\exception{EOFError}. Otherwise, when nothing matches, return
+\code{(-1, None, \var{text})} where \var{text} is the text received so
+far (may be the empty string if a timeout happened).
+
+If a regular expression ends with a greedy match (e.g. \regexp{.*})
+or if more than one expression can match the same input, the
+results are undeterministic, and may depend on the I/O timing.
+\end{methoddesc}
