Summary:                    poor man's "scriptable" telnet
Description: 
with most telnet programs you can do something like this:

    (
     sleep 2
     echo username
     sleep 2
     echo somepassword
     sleep 2
     echo date
     sleep 2
    ) | telnet somehost > session.log

there's no error checking, and no synchronization.  but for a quick and
dirty solution it can be handy.  

this doesn't work in busybox because busybox telnet exits if stdio is not
a terminal.  the following patch (only quickly tested) makes this work.
