Don't do this. Contrary to popular belief, telnet is a protocol beyond simply opening a bidirectional pipe over a socket. There are negotiation steps and the like. Just install telnet if you need it. It's not like Apple actually wrote these apps anyway. Install them trivially with brew, telnet, ftp, whatever old garbage you need. Funny thing is I just BARELY needed to install telnet. Well, "needed." I wanted to relive some old BBS memories.
