OTOH if you mean you want to send the page up/down/arrows as the
"something" then its a different game and you can do it. In that case
you need todo what you did with ESC. The character set your external app
uses will determine the codes you send. Assuming its the same set as
your local setup you can use the following program(untested!) to read
the codes from your keyboard (assuming you are on Windows):
import msvcrt
print "Hit space to end..."
print
while True:
ky = msvcrt.getch()
The OP is running Python 2.73 on Linux.
