Re: Trouble connecting To Server

\cX mimics CTRL- behaviour...
\cB for CTRL-B, \cC for CTRL-C.
BTW this stuff is mentioned in perlop.

I tried the `\cB` and `\cC`, but it still doesn't work. I think this has something to do with the way I'm sending the data. Again, typing everything in HyperTerminal works fine. Is there some "Perl terminal emulation mode"? -- whatever that means. Does terminal emulation send data in a "special/different" way than IO:SOCKET? -about to go nuts- Vic	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Did you try just sending the ascii value of ctrl-c? Maybe using pack? (`print \002;` works too, no?)	[reply] [d/l]

Thanks for your help guys. I got it work. It was indeed the `\c` character that solved the issue.	[reply] [d/l]
