Subject: redefining Net::Telnet "escape" character
> i sent this to the comp.lang.perl.modules newsgroup as the
> documentation suggests and got no response at all, so i thought i'd
> see if anyone here may be able to help.
>
> i'm using net::telnet to connect to a remote script (rather than a
> login). the script internally uses "^]" to step back through itself,
> conflicting with the default escape telnet character. this wouldn't
> be a problem per se except that the login to the system uses securid
> (requiring manual login each time), and once i connect i need to step
> through verifying several hundred auxiliary systems; being forced to
> manually login for each new test would negate the benefits of a
> script.
>
> i had the idea of, once connecting, dropping back to telnet and doing
> a "set escape ^[" but then realized net::telnet may not drop back
> to a
> telnet prompt as the telnet command would (no i haven't verified this
> for sure yet because i had my "epiphany" just as i was leaving work
> for the day, and i've been forced to take the rest of the week off for
