[newbie] Telnet

[Mcintosh, Duncan]

HI there

Iv got Linux running on a HP Vectrea VL5 It works just fine 
I am currently accessing this box via telnet. However the screensize of
telnet is limited and I'm looking for someother kind of
tools that lets me work from a windows machine.
Something like PCanywhere. 
I dont want to use X as I'm a newbie and want to practice the command in
shell.
Anybody got any ideas?
