Greetings all, I am using telnetlib and the box that I'm connecting to has a special escape sequence--^]--to leave the prompt and go back to the regular telnet prompt. For example, from teh command line I do this:
telnet 123.12.123.0 Login:> xxxxxx Password:> xxxxxxx Welcome. Connected to '123.12.123.0'. Escape character is '^]'. #> (some commands) (responses) When I pressing and hold Ctrl and then ], I go back to my normal telnet prompt and can quit. Using telnetlib, I can send commands and get responses. But I'm stuck on sending the ctrl+]! Is there some escape character--\c?--or a keycode like \^ to send through telnetlib? Telnetlib is doing what I need it to, but the read_until command that I'm familiar appears to be getting stuck on the fact that I never leave the connection properly--like I would normally do with an "exit" or "quit". As always, I'm glad for comments and pointers in the right direction! Thank you all in advance, newbo -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
