0.7: http://forums.qj.net/psp-development-forum/24922-psp-telnet-now-irc-client-peldet.html#post277460

I've been working on a telnet client for psp.

Currently has about all the basic stuff you need including:

Ability to chose which wifi to connect to
Chose where to telnet to
Favorites

Grab it from http://localhost.geek.nz/telnet/

and give it a test.
Its good enough that you could connect to a MUD and have a play.
Text input is done through p-sprint, so check out its site to see how to use that (link is in the readme)

Im gonna go sleep now (1:40am)
I'll try post a pic tomorow. (if someone else could it would be much appreciated).
Danzel.

**psy^** · 11-07-2005, 05:44 AM

Heh, i was wondering how long it'd take before someone coded something like this up

Should be handy if i need to reset the router or modem on a wireless network.
Possibly my own

**Rinku** · 11-07-2005, 07:26 AM

EDIT: Well i got it too accept the ip and port i put in, But then it exited and went back to the psp menu. What did i do wrong?

WS141 · 11-08-2005, 12:28 AM

Great app danzel! Iv tried to telnet to one of my computers and then ssh to others, it works great altho some characters are still nog handled right but im sure you'll get that later on. A great thing would be if you could add on the ssh protocol since telnet is unencrypted and so. Please keep on working on this project and thanx once again for a great psp app.

**iball®** · 11-08-2005, 01:16 AM

Yes, telnet is BAD! SSH is GOOD!
Fire BAD!

**danzel** · 11-08-2005, 05:00 AM

Thanks all for the feedback.

I do plan to add ssh support, but its quite a big protocol so it will take a while.

@Rinku: Yep, as it says you need to use spaces instead of full stops, it makes it a bit quicker to type in an ip.
I'll get it to support that better in... possibly the next version (which would be 0.4)
If you could keep future discussion in here it'd be easier to find

@WS141: What characters dont work?
hhmmm... is it the ascii art characters used to draw tables and such? they probally dont work.
I plan to recode the rendering to not just use the debug print commands, this will clean up the extended ascii rendering and allow screen scrolling using the analog stick.

Peldet is now at Version 0.3!
Changelog:
You can display the psprint keyboard by pressing R when in a telnet session (Hack, will improve for next version).
Where the error-codes are known there is an error message instead.
Miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements.

And if you haven't seen, Peldet is under GPL and the source can be downloaded from the site.

Danzel. (Yay, its a 2am release this time lol)

**Rinku** · 11-08-2005, 07:04 PM

how exactly do i add and load Favorites?

**danzel** · 11-08-2005, 09:07 PM

Create a file on the root of your memory stick called peldetfav.txt (an example is included with the exe)

The format is as follows:

Code:

AAA BBB CCC DDD PORT name_of_connection
AAA BBB CCC DDD PORT another_connection

It supports up to 9 favorites.

I'll try release a new version later tonight that is less strict on the ip format, so you can have 10.10.10.10:23 and such.

In reply to the comments from the frontpage news, the dns resolving code for psp isnt figured out yet. and watching ascii starwars on psp stops you from being able to quit unfortunately (as well as not rendering correctly).

Danzel.

**Rinku** · 11-08-2005, 09:24 PM

Much obliged.

**danzel** · 11-10-2005, 08:09 PM

After a few days coding, I'm ready to release 0.4

The big new feature in this version is that the screen is now 80x24, proper telnet size.

Ascii starwars is almost viewable ( its added to the favorites file )

Changelog:
0.4
Now uses a font i hand drew myself

Now we have an 80x24 console with full ascii art characters.
An initial Escape sequence has been added ( ^[H ) which is reset whole screen, this makes ascii starwars almost viewable, lol!!!!
Few bug fixes and additions because of the new rendering code.

Danzel.

**elevationsnow** · 11-10-2005, 11:59 PM

soo... when are you gonna add the wep cracking ability

hehe jk btw it would still be awesome and im sure, since your project is open source, if you called it for educational purposes you would have no problem with the po po

(not to be a noob or anything)

**Hmboy** · 11-11-2005, 12:17 AM

Nice work

**danzel** · 11-11-2005, 02:22 AM

wep cracking? lol.
I dont think we have low level enough access to the hardware to do that at the moment.
Maybe if someone gets linux properly on psp (like unload the psp kernel and load the linux kernel) that would be a reality.

In reply to fraseybobo from the front page thread,

Quote:

I wonder if you could access the Telnet web browser with this?

If you can tell me where I can get it, or an address I can access it at I'll definately add in the escape sequences needed to support it (if it doesnt work already)

Also, if anyone knows of a MUD that uses colors and such, drop me the address and Ill get all of them tested and working

Danzel.

**danzel** · 11-15-2005, 11:47 PM

0.5 Is out!

Lets you use DNS, the format of the favorites has changed for the better (check out the included one)
Added some more escape sequences so you can watch ascii starwars glitchfree (more or less)

at the usual place.

Danzel.

**danzel** · 11-21-2005, 01:51 AM

And now, 0.6

I've updated the Renderer to use the Gu functions, so the on screen keyboard (Press R when doing text input) will display nicely

Big cleanups on the code.

Danzel.

**Anotsu** · 11-21-2005, 05:19 AM

So I can potentially get into a mud by inserting the correct IP address and DNS etc? How exactly does this work? I have tried the first version and it just crashes on me. Do I need 0.6?

**Anja** · 11-21-2005, 06:26 AM

i cant connect to my shell... kthxn.net can someone help me ? (it shows SSH-1.99-OpenSSH_3.5p1 what does it mean?)

make a reboot option in the L button please... want to connect new, not restart the whole programm xD

**danzel** · 11-21-2005, 12:39 PM

I've got other plans for the L button

but I'll definately add a way to restart.

i cant connect to my shell... kthxn.net can someone help me ? (it shows SSH-1.99-OpenSSH_3.5p1 what does it mean?)
That means your trying to connect to a ssh server, not a telnet server.
SSH support should come in a future version... quite future...

@Anotsu - I recommend you try 0.6 and see if it still crashes then (Its much improved from the earlier versions). If it does still crash tell me What happens.

**Anja** · 11-21-2005, 01:58 PM

oh okay

hm... for lots of telnet using i need a keyboard ^^

**danzel** · 11-29-2005, 02:18 AM

Peldet 0.7 DuEy Edition. WITH IRC SUPPORT

Its sure taken its time, but here we finally have an IRC update to peldet that works well

I've spent a good amount of time seperating out the codebase to make it easy to drop in more protocols and all sorts of fun things.

Read the readme for more details on the IRC support

Changelog:
The codebase has been really thrashed to get in multiple protocol support

There is still a bit to do, but it can wait for the next version.
IRC SUPPORT :O some limitations, but pretty usable

When connecting to wifi it will keep trying untill it gets on.
Scrollable screen. (Use the analog stick)
Lots more I forget zzzzz.
Background menu image by DuEy

One note: when connecting to an irc server if your nick is taken it will tell you, but it wont disconnect. you can try send '/nick newnick' to continue with another nickname.

Danzel.

Edit: Could a mod please change the thread topic to include that this now has IRC support

WS141 · 11-29-2005, 09:32 AM

0.7 is great. Finnaly i dont have to have 2 apps for irc and telnet

and also i dont have to change the damn config file in PIRC all the time

thanx danzel keep upp the good work!

P.S. Time stamps for irc would be great but I dont know how hard that is to add

**Clay** · 11-29-2005, 11:34 AM

Posted on the blog, thanks! Good work!

HoRnEyDvL · 11-29-2005, 11:39 AM

Can u add another keyboard in ialong with psprint i hate it just find it 2 hard 2 use maybe like a virtual keyboard like u find when u change ur psp name etc.

**danzel** · 11-29-2005, 12:37 PM

If anyone knows of a library for psp that gives a standard onscreen keyboard I'll happily add it in as an option, its not something I currently want to work on creating myself.

Me and bakablah have joined forces on the IRC client, and currently he is working on a predictive input style input for use with peldet.
Anyone else out there is more than welcome to send us some code you've hacked into peldet and we can add it into the official codebase.
(Psilocybeing: your more than welcome to be one of the official devs)

Timestamps shouldnt be too hard, will look into adding it as an option in the next version.

Danzel.

**iball®** · 11-29-2005, 12:41 PM

I know keyboard code exists....I think I saw a thread on it over at ps2dev.org.
I remember the main dev on it saying it was free for use in other programs.

**Fanjita** · 11-29-2005, 12:57 PM

There's a pretty standard keyboard library called p-sprint doing the rounds. I haven't used it myself, by all accounts it takes a bit of getting used to, but after that it's very efficient.

goonar · 11-29-2005, 01:47 PM

nice job.
cool that you guys are working together on the IRC client.
I agree with above statement that the P-sprint keyboard is kind of a pain to use.

thanks for all the hard work you guys put into stuff we all get for free.

cheers

**danzel** · 11-29-2005, 02:04 PM

@Fanjita - Yeah we're using that at the moment, I find its pretty good.

@iBall - That might be the p-sprint code, but I'll go have a look anyway, thanks

**wallaby** · 11-29-2005, 03:53 PM

can some explain to me what telenet is and what this does. please

**inverse** · 11-29-2005, 05:46 PM

i am not very good with p-sprint, how do i change from group to group... i'm reading the guide

http://www.niwra.nl/psp/p-sprint-c/doc/index.htm

but i cant seem to get it to change =( i want to go from letters to numbers
