While NexusChat now supports VT100 terminal emulation which allows most regular telnet users to be able to use NexusChat much the same as a buffered client user, if you or the server is on a slow connection, you might want to use one of the following buffered clients.

Client Name	Platform	Rating ( [lowest] 1-5 [highest] )
Gmud	Win95/98/NT
tinyfugue	*nix / Linux (ncurses)
