 ### New Functionality
 
 #### Remote Console Facility
-    A new capability has been added which allows a TELNET Connection to a user designated port so that some out of band commands can be entered to manipulate and/or adjust a running simulator.  The commands which enable and control this capability are SET REMOTE TELNET=port, SET REMOTE CONNECTIONS=n and SHOW REMOTE.
