[Tutor] Telnet and special characters

[Chris Hallman]

Is it possible to send a F1 "character" over a telnet connection? I've
searched but I can't find a solution. I've tried
SendKeys<http://www.rutherfurd.net/python/sendkeys/>and other methods,
but I can't get it to work.

import telnetlib

pswd = "***"
host = "***"
tn = telnetlib.Telnet(host)
tn.read_until("password:", 7)
tn.write(pswd + "\n")
tn.write(chr(27)) # ESC
tn.write(chr(78)) # Shift N
tn.write(chr(25)) # Down arrow
