Example Telnet code:
import getpass
import sys
import telnetlib
HOST = "localhost"
user = raw_input("Enter your remote account: ")
password = getpass.getpass()
tn = telnetlib.Telnet(HOST)
tn.read_until("login: ")
tn.write(user + "\n")
if password:
tn.read_until("Password: ")
tn.write(password + "\n")
tn.write("ls\n")
tn.write("exit\n")
print tn.read_all()
So any ideas on how to modify this to listen to gpsd?When I typed "telnet
localhost gpsd" I dint mention the port number.
