Possible bug in handle() method... about telnetspy HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi,
this is not a bug but a problem. If there is no traffic on a telnet connection the server has problems to detect a disconnected client. It will happen but it needs a very long time. To get rid of this problem I implemented a ping function which sends periodically a null character to the telnet client if there is just no traffic. So a disconnected client will be detected very fast. This should solve your problem.
I did also a lot of other extensions/improvements (see README.md), so the external RingBuffer component is no longer neccessary. But you have to add
TelnetSpy SerialAndTelnet;
to the beginnig of your script, because it is no longer globally defined. So its now also possible to create the TelnetSpy object only if it is neccessary.

Hi,
Thank you for your reply and time to look into the situation and I'm sorry for referring to it as a Bug.
I also will be checking out your latest version and the new features, I particularly like the fact that you have eliminated some of the external dependencies and the need for a global definition.
