Actually, it pulls the terminal type from the terminal that you are
connecting from (based on what telnet passes).  So if you are coming off
of a unix box that has your terminal type set correctly things should work
okay for you.  Also, it asks for the type before asking who you are, so
it can't really pull it out of your account (and i like being asked,
because I come off of different machines).

If you come up with a good way to do it I could add it tho...
