Sure:
- type:
xterm -e telnet remote-host &
or
- type:
ssh -n remote-host xterm -ls &
Both will get you connected to the far end. The arrangement of the pieces is
slightly different - the net effect is similar.

X-user - "Will you look at those. . .um, that resolution, quite
impressive, really."
Advantages: Using the cutting-edge in graphics technology.
Disadvantages: Has little or no idea how to use the cutting-edge in graphics
technology.
Symptoms: Fuzzy hands, blindness
Real Case: When I was off duty, two users sat down in front of me at DEC
station 5000/200s that systems was reconfiguring. I
suppressed my laughter while, for twenty minutes, they sat
down and did their best to act like they were doing exectly
what they wanted to do, even though they couldn't log in.
