Subject: bug#56461: Make net/rlogin.el obsolete
Date: Sat, 9 Jul 2022 07:05:38 -0700

Severity: wishlist

I guess net/rlogin.el should be obsoleted.  It has a pretty bad name (no
one uses rlogin these days) and seems to add nothing useful over
e.g. `M-x shell RET ssh <foo>'.

See this comment at the top of that file:

    ;; FIXME?
    ;; Maybe this file should be obsolete.
