   Your telnet client may be expecting both a carriage return and a line feed   
   character.   
      
   I suspect that if you do something like this:   
   writeln('one');   
   writeln('two');   
   writeln('three');   
      
   The output would be:   
   one   
      two   
         three   
      
   If that's the case, try this:   
   writeln('one'#13);   
   writeln('two'#13);   
   writeln('three'#13);   
      
   You should get:   
   one   
   two   
   three
