For identification using the standard telnet client identification protocol, Savitar identifies itself as "ANSI". I think this should be changed to "Savitar" because ANSI isn't really what the client is.

"ANSI" is also the identification of the WindowsXP default telnet client, and for my Mud I would like to differentiate about different clients people use, so I can assist them better if they have some problems w/ how things are displayed etc.

Obviously, this is not convenient to do, if I can't tell if the person is using Savitar or WindowsXP telnet.

On a side note, Rapscallion simply ignores the identification protocol, while other clients like Mac OS X telnet and hydraMUD identify themselves correctly ("XTERM-COLOR", "hydraMUD").

Thanks.
