i took a look and it appears that the site/page is out of date... the first
thing is that the link to telsrv doesn't work when clicked... it comes back
and says the file is not found when using an anonymous connection... so i
went looking... it seems that mannsoft is no longer around and that telsrv
was renamed to gamesrv now handled by rick parrish... a quick search for
gamesrv turned up

  https://www.gamesrv.ca/

and the current version available in the downloads link is v14.08.14...

i do see now that telsrv/gamesrv is being used as the telnet server instead
of having netfoss or netserial running in front... i knew that there had to
be a way to grab the handle but i didn't know how one could do that without
assistance from the virtual modem software or some way of triggering a
dobbs.bat or similar so that the socket handle might be dug out somehow...
