------- Additional Comments From edward.j.sargisson@nz1.ibm.com  2007-11-25 16:25 -------
I'd like to provide some additional support for fixing this.

We have a situation where we have some hardware crypto modules connected to a
Lantronix EDS4100 serial-to-IP device. We need to use Telnet to connect to the
Lantronix box. However, the hardware crypto modules use \r as the line
seperator. When running our software on Linux this causes a failure because:
1. The Unix line separator means that FromNetASCIIInputStream is used.
2. The FromNetASCIIInputStream#__read method reads a \r then waits for the next
character.
3. Because our hardware crypto modules only send one line of response with a \r
terminator there is no next character.
4. The read then times out.

There are two basic issues here: One is that JRE properties are being used to
configure the library with no method for the developer to override this. The
second is that the code expects a character after every \r when there is no
guarantee this might happen.

In conclusion, I would like a way to either turn off line feed conversion or to
have access to the unconverted input stream.
