Package: libcli1 (1.8.6-1)

emulates a cisco style telnet command-line interface

libcli provides a consistant Cisco style command-line environment for remote clients, with a few common features between every implemtation.

The library is not accessed by itself, rather the software which uses it listens on a defined port for a Telnet connection. This connection is handed off to libcli for processing.

libcli includes support for command history, command line editing and filtering of command output.
