+
+Unlike most other remote login protocols, the Telnet protocol has a
+special \q{new line} code that is not the same as the usual line
+endings of Control-M or Control-J. By default, PuTTY sends the
+Telnet New Line code when you press Return, instead of sending
+Control-M as it does in most other protocols.
+
+Most Unix-style Telnet servers don't mind whether they receive
+Telnet New Line or Control-M; some servers do expect New Line, and
+some servers prefer to see ^M. If you are seeing surprising
+behaviour when you press Return in a Telnet session, you might try
+turning this option off to see if it helps.
