yes it does have the space - sorry. does it make a difference if I use 
tn.read_until vs tn.read_all?  will it close the connection or not accept a 
write command if I  dont read_until?  the fact that I get a traceback error 
when I read_until and I get ",,," when I use read_all - does this mean the 
connection has been closed?

also when I try tn.open(host) it will give me the welcome screen with the words 
"session 1" included in the string.  if I then immediately try tn.open(host) 
again it will give me the same welcome message with "session 1"  could the 
connection be closing before I get a chance to write the user name?
