        unfortunately, if i wish to use a LOGIN service for this random
        host, i still have to put this host in my (or someone's LISPM)
        namespace

        After all, if the UN*X folks can get by with less inconvenience,
        why shouldn't we?

    You can do just what the unix people have to: to the Terminal window you
    can type "a.b.c.d :Connection Protocol whatever :Login Protocol whatever"

Unfortunately, this doesn't quite work.  I end up in the debugger and need to
select a proceed option.  Unless I'm missing something?  To wit:

Connect: TOTO.MIT.EDU 1(keywords) 0:Login Protocol 1(a protocol) 0TELNET :Connection Protocol 1(a protocol [default Telnet]) 0Telnet
2Error: TOTO.MIT.EDU does not support LOGIN service with TELNET.
