Well, it doesn’t appear to be a
hack. I got it to work using window’s (*wipes dust off shoulder*) version
of telnet (I suppose it’s actually DOS, but whatever).
Just telnet the server:
towel.blinkenlights.nl (heather spelled it wrong
à
see below) and it should
start automatically.

(Sorry for the random
incomplete post)
Alex:
Ed wrote a script that telnet'd (telnetted?)
towel.blikenlights.nl
and then ran it
using VIM's execute shell command command (:!).
It was a hack, but it was fun. VIM just doesn't come with tetris...
