-Also, the special strings ''%host'' and ''%port'' will be replaced by the host name and port number you want to connect to. The strings ''%user'' and ''%pass'' will be replaced by the proxy username and password (which, if not specified in the configuration, will be prompted for).

-This will send your username and password as the first two lines to the proxy, followed by a command to connect to the desired host and port. Note that if you do not include the ''%user'' or ''%pass'' tokens in the Telnet command, then anything specified in //Username// and //Password// configuration fields will be ignored.+This will send your username and password as the first two lines to the proxy, followed by a command to connect to the desired host and port.
