Got a problem with a proxy telnet server that I am trying to debug, it appears that a set of characters being sent are causing it a problem .... does anybody know where I can get a list of teminal commands (Along the lines of [40m)?

It depends on which terminal you are emulating. VT100 is a very common emulation. You can find a description of the VT100 command set here.

You have to do telnet negotiation, did you checked RFC-1091 and RFC-854? Afterwards, what will be accepted depends on the terminal type of course.

A: 

For telnet protocol, you could lookup RFC854. But from your description, you are probably looking for specifications of some terminal emulators. There are a lot of different terminal types, each having its own specifications.
