There has been one or two messages that I have read hinting
about this capibility but none that I have seen stating
very clearly that an rlogin type is needed. So now I'm
saying it. How about an rlogin type. This would look
very similar to telnet type.

rloginaddress
rlogin://[user@]hostport

hostport
host[:port]

host
hostname | hostnumber

user
xalphas

If a client cannot process an rlogin then it can be treated as
a regular telnet type. This is basically just a convienence
routine, saving the user from typing in a username. I wouldn't
request this if it wasn't so easy to implement.

Well how about it???
