Example:

    TTERMPRO myhost.mydomain:23
    TTERMPRO myhost.mydomain 23
    TTERMPRO 111.111.11.11
    TTERMPRO myhost.mydomain /T=0 /P=7
    TTERMPRO /C=1
    TTERMPRO /F=TELNET.INI
    TTERMPRO foohost.foodomain /F=FOOHOST.INI
    TTERMPRO /C=2 /F=MYSETUP.INI
    TTERMPRO /K=MYKEY.CNF /W="My host"
    TTERMPRO /R=README.TXT ; replay a file
    TTERMPRO myhost /B /X=100 /Y=50</span>

Default values
    Following default values are stored in the Tera Term setup file:
<span class="syntax">        &lt;TCP port#&gt;
        /B
        &lt;serial port#&gt;
        &lt;file transfer directory&gt;
        /H
        &lt;kanji code (receive)&gt;
        &lt;kanji code (transmit)&gt;
        &lt;language&gt;
        &lt;macro file&gt;
        &lt;telnet flag&gt;
        &lt;window title&gt;
        &lt;window pos (x)&gt;
        &lt;window pos (y)&gt;</span>
</pre>

<p>
Note:<br>
Only if &lt;telnet flag&gt; is 1 (on) and &lt;TCP port#&gt; is 23, Tera Term starts spontaneously sending telnet commands to the host for the option negotiation when the TCP/IP connection is established. In any cases, Tera Term can respond to telnet commands sent by the host.
