I forgot toask how is the better form of installing dctelnet. Copying files manually or using the built in installer?
I usually prefer manual installation, but in this case the installer script looks so clean that you can do it any way you want. I've copied my installation directly from my A1200 for the most programs, including this :)
And about the screen thing, there's pulldown menu option "Options->Use Workbench" in DCTelnet (and "Settings->Screen mode"). If you check it, DCTelnet will be in a window on Ambient/Workbench, but then you lose ansi colors. When unchecked it will use its own custom screen mode and will open full screen on separate screen. I don't remember which is the default option, but if default is to use custom screen and it happens to be some PAL/NTSC mode, you can delete DCTelnet.Prefs file to get mode requester in the start IIRC (probably opens it anyway in first run).
