win10-32

On Windows 10 32-bit or Windows 7 32-bit, the stock telnet client fails to properly connect to TalkerNode, as we can see on the screenshot.

Typing a letter in the "tell me your name" field, is enough to elicit a response (as if the letter had been sent with an enter).

I'm tagging this as "help wanted", since I do not have any Windows I can use to debug this with.

@marado marado added this to the 0.8.0 milestone Aug 23, 2020

This commit introduces input buffering, so that input from clients which
don't default to and/or support line mode (e.g, Windows' builtin client)
will be handled correctly.

Note that this does not entirely fix Windows compatibility as echo
behaviour in the MS Telnet Client differs to other implementations.

Therefore, IAC echo will need to be implemented (marado#34).

Still not totally fixed (see more info on #122 ).

We need to buffer everything: .map, motd, .file. ... which isn't, actually, quite the same issue. I'm going to close this one, use the IAC one for the echo sittuation, and create a new one for the linebreak issues in the output (things the talker sends the client).
