  - Install SecureCRT

    - Open a terminal window and type <code>python3</code> for a popup window asking you install the modules for Python3.
  - <code>nano /Users/userName/Library/Application\ Support/VanDyke/SecureCRT/Config/Global.ini</code> where userName is your current profile name.
    - Press CTRL+w and type the following in the search box:
      - <code>Check Shell Telnet Command</code>
    - Change the digit to a one.
      - <code>D:"Check Shell Telnet Command"=00000001</code>
  - {{ :software:securecrt:macos-setsecurecrtdefaulturlhandler.py.rtf |Download}} the macOS-SetSecureCRTDefaultURLHandler.py.rtf file.
    - <code>MD5 (macOS-SetSecureCRTDefaultURLHandler.py.rtf) = 29fad02edd7d35972493a7877e6b683e</code>
    - Rename the file to remove the .txt extension
      - <code>mv macOS-SetSecureCRTDefaultURLHandler.py.rtf macOS-SetSecureCRTDefaultURLHandler.py</code>
    - Set the file to executable
      - <code>chmod +x macOS-SetSecureCRTDefaultURLHandler.py</code>
  - Run Python3
    - <code>python3 macOS-SetSecureCRTDefaultURLHandler.py --register</code>
      - I did not have to reboot, but your mileage may vary.
  - Start SecureCRT and there should be a popup asking to use it as the default Telnet handler.
  - Enjoy!
