            0   0 = Ignore all other bits in this byte and
repeat the last <cmd> that was sent. Equals a 'continue what you have been doing'.
1 = Perform actions as indicated by other bits

           Even numbers greater than zero (i.e. numbers with the
right most bit off) are in error and should be interpreted as equal to zero. When the <cmd> is an even number greater than zero, classes bytes TC1 &

also resetting the printing action; so an odd number
           is guaranteed):                                          3e1o

               bytes [TC1 TC2])                                     3e1q
     
           24 = Set break classes (using the next two bytes [BC1
BC2]) and the transmission classes (using the two
               bytes after that [TC1 TC2]).                         3e1r
     
         Sub-commands (IAC SB RCTE...) are only sent by the
controlling host and, in addition to other functions, functionally replace the Go-Ahead (IAC GA) Telnet feature. RCTE also functionally replaces the Echo (IAC ECHO) Telnet option. That is the Suppress Go-Ahead option should be in force and the Echo option should not be in force while the RCTE option is in use. The echo mode on terminating use of the RCTE option should
         be the default state, that is DON'T ECHO, WON'T ECHO.       3e2
     
         Classes for break and transmission (the right-most bit
of the second byte (TC2 or BC2) represents class 1; the left-most bit of the first byte (TC1 or BC1) represents

             The sequence <cr><lf> counts as one character when
processed as the Telnet end of line, and is a single break character when class 4 is set. The sequence <cr><nul> counts as one character and is a break character if and only if <cr> is a
                break character (i.e. class 4 is set).
     
           5: Non-format Effector Control Characters including

           And Telnet commands (IAC . . .) sent by the user are
always to have the effect of a break character. That is, every instance of an IAC is to be treated as a
           break character, except the sequence IAC IAC.            3e3j
     
         The representation to be displayed when printing is
called for is the obvious one for the visible characters (classes 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, and 8). Space (class 9) is represented by a blank space. The format effectors (class 4) by their format effect. The non-format effector controls (class 5) print nothing
         (no space).                                                 3e4
     
         Initially no break classes or transmission classes are
         in effect.                                                  3e5
     
         Please note that if all the bits are set in a Telnet
subcommand argument byte such as TC2 or BC2 then that byte must be preceeded by an <IAC> flag byte. This is the common convention of doubling the escape character
         to use its value as data.                                   3e6
     
         Sub-commands (IAC SB RCTE...) are refered to as "break
         reset commands".                                            3e7

         Neither host asserts special control over the other
         host's terminal printer.                                    4a1
     
     4.  Motivation for the option:                                    5
     
       RFC's 1, 5 and 51 discuss Network and process efficiency
       and smoothness.                                                5a
     
       RFC 357, by John Davidson, introduces the problem of
echoing delay that occurs when a remote user accesses a full-duplex host, thru a satellite link. In order to save the many thousands of miles of transit time for each echoed character, while still permitting full server
       responsiveness and clean terminal output, an echo control
     
     
     
                                                                [page 4]

 NWG/RFC# 726 JBP DHC 8-MAR-77 08:29 39237
     Remote Controlled Transmission & Echoing Telnet Option
     
     
     
       similar to that used by some time-sharing systems is
       suggested for the entire Network.                              5b
     
         In effect, the option described in this document
involves making a using host carefully regulate the local terminal printer according to explicit
         instructions from the remote (serving) host.                5b1
     
       An important additional issue is efficient Network
transmission. Implementation of the Davidson Echoing
       Scheme will eliminate almost all server-to-user echoing.       5c
     
         The option described in this document also requests
using hosts to buffer a terminal's input to the serving host until it forms a useful unit (with "useful unit" delimited by break or transmission characters as described below). Therefore, fewer messages are sent on
         the user-to-server path.                                    5c1
     
       N.B.:  This option is only intended for use with
full-duplex hosts. The Go-Ahead Telnet feature is completely adequate for half-duplex server hosts. Also, RCTE should be used in place of the ECHO Telnet option. That is the Suppress Go-Ahead option should be in force and the Echo option should not be in force while the RCTE
       option is in use.                                              5d

       User Terminal Printing Action & Control Procedure              6a
     
         Negotiate the use of the RCTE option. Once the option
is in force the user Telnet follows the following
         procedure.                                                  6a1
     
         1) Read an item from the network.                           6a2
     
           If the item is data, then print it and go to 1.          6a2a
     
           If the item is a command, then set the classes and go
           to 2.                                                    6a2b
     
         2) If the terminal input buffer is empty, then go to 3,
         else go to 4.                                               6a3
     
         3) Wait for an item to appear either from the terminal
         or from the network.                                        6a4
     
           If an item appears from the terminal, then go to 4.      6a4a
     
           If a data item appears from the network, then print
           it and go to 3.                                          6a4b
     
           If a command appears from the network, then an error
           has occured.                                             6a4c
     
         4) Read an item from the terminal input buffer.             6a5
     
           If the item is not a break, then print/skip it and go
           to 2.                                                    6a5a
     
           If the item is a break, then print/skip it and go to
           1.                                                       6a5b
     
         Note:  Output from the server host may occur at any
         time, such "spontaneous output" is printed in step 3.       6a6

 NWG/RFC# 726 JBP DHC 8-MAR-77 08:29 39237
     Remote Controlled Transmission & Echoing Telnet Option
     
     
     
       Explanation:                                                   6b
     
         Both Hosts agree to use the RCTE option. After that,
the using host (IAC DO RCTE) merely acts upon the controlling (serving) host's commands and does not issue any RCTE commands unless and until it (using host) decides to stop allowing use of the option (by
         sending IAC DON'T RCTE).                                    6b1
     
         1)  The using host is synchronized with the server by
initially and when ever it returns to step 1 suspending terminal echo printing until it receives a command from
         the server.                                                 6b2
     
         The server may send either output to the terminal
         printer or a command, and usually sends a both.             6b3
     
         The server may send output to the terminal printer
either in response to user input or spontaneously. In the former case, the output is processed in step 1. In
         the latter case, the output is processed in step 3.         6b4
     
         Server sends an RCTE command. The command may redefine
break and transmission classes, action to be performed on break characters, and action to be performed on text. Each of these independent functions is controlled
         by separate bits in the <cmd> byte.                         6b5
     
           A transmission character is one which RECOMMENDS that
the using host transmit all text accumulated up to and including its occurrence. (For network efficiency, using hosts are DISCOURAGED (but not prohibited) from sending before the occurrence of a transmission character, as defined at the moment the
           character is typed).                                     6b5a
     
             If the transmission classes bit (bit 4) is on, the
two bytes following the two break classes bytes (or immediately following the <cmd> byte, if the break classes bit is not on) will indicate what classes
             are to be enabled.
     
             If the bit is OFF, the transmission classes remain
unchanged. When the RCTE option is first initiated, NO CLASSES are in effect. That is, no character will be considered a transmission character. (As if
             both TC1 and TC2 are zero.)
     
           A break character REQUIRES that the using host
     
     
     
                                                                [page 7]

     Remote Controlled Transmission & Echoing Telnet Option
     
     
     
           transmit all text accumulated up to and including its
occurrence and also causes the using host to stop its print/discard action upon the user's input text, until directed to do otherwise by another IAC SB RCTE <cmd> IAC SE command from the serving host. Break characters therefore define printing units. "Break character" as used in this document does NOT mean
           Telnet Break character.                                  6b5b
     
             If the break classes bit (bit 3) is on, the two
bytes following <cmd> will indicate what classes are to be enabled. There are currently nine (9)
             classes defined, with room for expansion.
     
             If the bit is OFF, the break classes remain
unchanged. When the RCTE option is initiated, NO CLASSES are to be in effect. That is, no transmission will take place in the user to server direction until the first break reset command is
             received by the user from the server.
     
           The list of character classes, used to define break
and transmission classes are listed at the end of
           this document, in the Tables Section.                    6b5c
     
           Because break characters are special, the
print/discard action that should be performed upon them is not always the same as should be performed
           upon the rest of the input text.                         6b5d
     
             For example, while typing a filename to TENEX, I
want the text of the filename to be printed (echoed); but I do not want the <escape> (if I use
             the name completion feature) to be printed.
     
             If bit 1 is ON the break character is NOT to be
             printed.
     
           A separate bit (bit 2) signals whether or not the
text itself should be printed (echoed) to the terminal. If bit 2 = 0, then the text IS to be
           printed.                                                 6b5e
     
           Yet another bit (bit 0 - right-most bit) signals
whether or not any of the other bits of the command should be checked. If this bit is OFF, then the command should be interpreted to mean "continue
           whatever echoing strategy you have been following,
           using the same break and transmission classes."          6b5f
     
     
     
                                                                [page 8]

         2)  The user Telnet now checks the terminal input
buffer, if it contains data it is processed in step 4, otherwise the user Telnet waits in step 3 for further
         developments.                                               6b6
     
         3)  The user Telnet waits until either the human user
enters some data in which case Telnet proceeeds to step 4, or an item is received from the network. If the item from the network is data it is spontaneous output and is printed, Telnet then continues to wait. If the item from the network is a command then an error has occured. In this case the user Telnet may attempt to
         resynchronize the use of RCTE as indicated below.           6b7
     
         4)  Items from the terminal are processed with printing
controlled by the settings of the latest break reset command. When a break character is processed, the cycle of control is complete and action re-commences at step
         1.                                                          6b8
     
         Input from the terminal is (hopefully) buffered into
units ending with a transmission or break character; and echoing of input text is suspended after the occurrence of a break character and until receipt of a break reset command from the serving host. The most recent break reset command determines the break
         actions.                                                    6b9
     
         In summary, what is required is that for every break
character sent in the user to server direction there be a break reset command sent in the server to user direction. The user host initially has no knowledge of which characters are break characters and so starts in a state that assumes that there are no break characters and also that no echoing is to be provided. The server host is expected to send a break reset command to establish the break classes and the echoing mode before
         it receives any data from the user.                        6b10
     
       Synchronization and Resynchronization:                         6c
     
         The serving and using hosts must carefully synchronize
break reset commands with the transmission of break characters. Except at the beginning of an interaction, the serving host may only send a break reset command in response to the Using host's having sent a break character as defined at that time. This should establish a one-to-one correspondence between them. (A
         <cmd> value of zero, in this context, is interpreted as
     
     
     
                                                                [page 9]

         a break classes reset to the same class(es) as before.)
The break reset command may be preceded by terminal
         output.                                                     6c1
     
         The re-synchronization of the break characters and the
break reset commands is done via the exchange of the Telnet signal Abort Output (AO) in the server to user direction and the SYNCH in the user to server
         direction.                                                  6c2

         characters and the break reset commands.                    6c3
     
           a.  The server should be sure all output to the
terminal has been printed by using, for example, the
           Timing Mark Option.                                      6c3a
     
           b.  The server sends the AO signal.                      6c3b
     
           c.  The user receives the AO signal. The user flushes
all user to server data wheather it has been echoed or not. The user sends a SYNCH to the server. [The SYNCH consists of the Telnet Data Mark (DM) and the host-to-host interrupt (INS).] The user now enters
           the initial state at step 1.                             6c3c
     
           d.  The server receives the SYNCH and flushes any
data preceeding the DM (as always). The server now sends a break reset command. (Actually the break reset command could be sent at any time following the
           AO.)                                                     6c3d
     
         Suppose the user wants to resynchronize the break
         characters and the break reset commands.                    6c4
     
           a.  The user should discard all user to server data
           wheather it has been echoed or not.                      6c4a
     
           b.  The user sends the AO signal. The user now enters
           the algorithm at step 1.                                 6c4b
     
           c.  The server receives the AO signal. The server
discards all data buffered but not yet sent to the
           user. The server sends a SYNCH to the user. The
           server sends a break reset command to the user.          6c4c

       Notes and Comments:                                            6d
     
         Even-numbered commands, greater than zero, are in
error, since they will have the low-order bit off. The command should be interpreted as equal to zero, which means that any classes reset bytes ([TC1 TC2] [BC1 BC2]) will be in error. (The IAC SE, at the end of the command, eliminates any parsing problems due to this
         error.)                                                     6d1
     
         Serving hosts will generally instruct using hosts not
to echo break characters, even though it might be alright to echo most break characters. For example, <cr> is usually a safe character to echo but <esc> is not. TENEX Exec is willing to accept either, during filename specification. Therefore, the using host must
         be instructed not to echo any break characters.             6d2
     
           This is generally a tolerable problem, since the
serving host has to send an RCTE command at this point, anyhow. Adding an echo for the break character to the message will not cause any extra network
           traffic.                                                 6d2a
     
         The RCTE Option entails a rather large overhead. In a
true character-at-a-time situation, this overhead is not justified. But on the average, it should result in significant savings, both in network traffic and host
         wake-ups.                                                   6d3
     
         Buffering Problems and Transmission vs. Printing
         Constraints:                                                6d4
     
           There are NO mandatory transmission constraints. The
using host is allowed to send a character a time, though this would be a waste of RCTE. The transmission classes commands are GUIDELINES, so deviating from them, as when the user's buffer gets
           full, is allowed.                                        6d4a
     
           Additionally, the using host may send a break class
character, without knowing that it is one (as with
           type-ahead).                                             6d4b
     
             If the user implementation is clever it may send
the user entered data to the server before it is actually needed. This type ahead data may contain
             break characters.
     
     
     
     
                                                               [page 11]

 NWG/RFC# 726 JBP DHC 8-MAR-77 08:29 39237
     Remote Controlled Transmission & Echoing Telnet Option
     
     
     
             Assume that only space is a break character (that
is the last break reset command specified print up to and including the break characters and set the break classes to class 9). Suppose the user had typed "abc<space>def<esc>ghi<cr>". The user side RCTE could send it all to the server, but it could print only "abc<space>", and would have to buffer "def<esc>ghi<cr>" at least until a break reset command was received from the server. That break reset command could change the break ckasses
             requiring rescanning the buffered string.
     
             For example suppose the break reset command set the
break characters to class 5 and the action to print up to but not including the break character. The user RCTE could then print "def" and discard the <esc>, but whould have to continue to buffer the
             "ghi<cr>".
     
           The problem with buffering occurs when printing on
the user's terminal must be suspended, after the user has typed a currently valid break character and until a break reset command is received from the serving host. During this time, the user may be typing merrily along. The text being typed may be SENT, but
           may not yet be PRINTED.                                  6d4c
     
           The more common problem of filling the transmission
buffer, while awaiting a host to host allocate from the serving host, may also occur, but this problem is well known to implementors and in no way special to
           RCTE.                                                    6d4d
     
           In any case, when the buffer does fill and further
text typed by the user will be lost, the user should
           be notified (perhaps by ringing the terminal bell).      6d4e
     
         Text should be buffered by the using host until the
user types a character which belongs to the transmission class in force at the moment the character
         is typed.                                                   6d5
     
         Transmission class reset commands may be sent by the
serving host at any time. If they are frequently sent separate from break class reset commands, it will probably be better to exit from RCTE and enter regular
         character at a time transmission.                           6d6
     
         It is not immediately clear what the using host should
     
     
     
                                                               [page 12]

     Remote Controlled Transmission & Echoing Telnet Option
     
     
     
         do with currently buffered text, when a transmission
classes reset command is received. The buffering is
         according to the previous transmission classes scheme.      6d7
     
           The using host clearly should not simply wait until a
transmission character (according to the new scheme)
           is typed.                                                6d7a
     
           Either the buffered text should be rescanned, under
           the new scheme;                                          6d7b
     
           Or the buffered text should simply be sent as a
group. This is the simpler approach, and probably
           quite adequate.                                          6d7c
     
         It is possible to define NO BREAK CHARACTERS except
Telnet commands (IAC ...). This seems undesirable and
         should not be done.                                         6d8
     
           If this situation were to occur the using host should
send a Telnet command to allow the server to know when he may reset the break classes, but the
           mechanism is awkward and this case should be avoided.    6d8a
     
     6.  Sample Interaction:                                           7
     
       "S:" is sent from serving (WILL RCTE) host to using host.
"U:" is sent from using (DO RCTE) host to serving host. "T:" is entered by the terminal user.
       "P:" is printed on the terminal.
     
       Text surrounded by square brackets ([]) is commentary.
Text surrounded by angle brackets (<>) is to be taken as a single unit. E.g., carriage return is <cr>, and the
       decimal value 27 is represented <27>.                          7a
     
       The following interaction shows a logon to a Tenex,
initiation of the DED editor, insertion of some text and
       the return to the Exec level.                                  7b
     
         An attempt has been made to give some flavor of the
asynchrony of network I/O and the user's terminal input. Many other possible combinations, using the same set of actions listed below, could be devised. The actual order of events will depend upon network and
         hosts' load and the user's typing speed.                    7b1
     
       We assume that the user's Telnet is also in an "insert
       linefeed" mode. That is, whenever the user types carriage
     
     
     
                                                               [page 13]
