Does anyone know the command line syntax for Aspect to start a telnet session: i.e. to telnet to a particular IP address?

It is still a dial command.
Proc Main
Dialnumber telnet "207.130.25.191"
EndProc
I tested this to be sure. You can also set up a connection directory entry or use set statements to specify the port and other settings. Robert Harris

If the telnet connection you want to use is in your Connection Directory, the following command line will start Procomm in telnet mode and make a connection to the telnet system:
pw5.exe connect telnet entryname
where entryname would be replaced by the name of the Connection Directory. If you are running a version earlier than 4.8, replace pw5.exe with pw4.exe
If the remote system is not in your Connection Directory, you can use:
pw5.exe connect manual telnet "address"
where address is either the IP address or fully-qualified domain name of the system you are trying to telnet to, and must be contained in quotes.
pw5.exe connect telnet entryname
where entryname would be replaced by the name of the Connection Directory. If you are running a version earlier than 4.8, replace pw5.exe with pw4.exe
If the remote system is not in your Connection Directory, you can use:
pw5.exe connect manual telnet "address"
where address is either the IP address or fully-qualified domain name of the system you are trying to telnet to, and must be contained in quotes.
Connectmanual and Dialnumber do the same thing (I was curious because I have always used dialnumber). The Aspect help says:
connectmanual is a synonym for dialnumber. Please see dialnumber for more information and an example script.
connectmanual accepts only a single telephone number. For multiple Connection Directory entry number, use the dial or connect command.
connectmanual will fail if a dialing operation or a file transfer is already in effect.
