Note: Windows users should refer to similar instructions for PuTTY.One nice thing about NiftyTelnet is that it doesn't require any special setup. Right out of the box, it can access the TCS from anywhere on the Internet. Just enter the address "tcs.wap.org" into the Hostname field and press the Connect button. But with just a few extra clicks, you can improve the experience.

The New Connection window will reappear with "TCS" highlighted in the Shortcuts box. To make this the default, click "Highlight This Shortcut On Startup".
Hereafter, to access the TCS via telnet, you can simply launch NiftyTelnet and click Connect. But even this can be improved, as follows.
Press the Edit button to bring back the settings for the shortcut you just created. Press the Save As button, and save the shortcut as a document in the Apple Menu Items folder within your System Folder.
