type Ctrl-V ESC. more generally, Ctrl-V 'escapes' the next character
(ha!) so the shell doesn't intercept it.

yes. type 'tty' in the first xterm. it will tell you the name of the
controlling terminal (something like /dev/pts/2), then you can 'echo
teletransmitter works >/dev/pts/2' in the second xterm.
