Re: How can I send Ctrl-D over Telnet session

ctrl-d is just the byte 0x04 (just like space, character 32, is the byte 0x20), so in perl, ^D is "\x4".

So just put a "\x4" in your string where you want the ctrl-D, or even better:

    # also declare other ctrl chars you need...
    my $ctrlD = "\x4";
    my $escape = "\x1b";
#... more code here...
    cmd("Send all the\ncommands you need\nincluding a ${ctrlD}");

Since asked for CTRL-D, I'd use "\cD" instead. - tye	[reply]
