And yes, now something like
dosemu -input 'thedosapp.exe\r\^['
indeed works, many thanks for pointing me to this! Unfortunately, for
some reason this only works with the -input switch, but not when
piping, like
echo "keystroke \^[" > dospipe
(where ^[ is what results from pressing ESC). It doesn't work through
dosctrl or Ruby either. I wonder why this is supported by the -input
switch, but not by the keystroke command...
To get back to the use of the echo command...
$ echo -n "\033" | wc
0 1 4
$ echo -ne "\033" | wc
0 0 1
This looks like a singe ESC character got sent to the
output, to me.
In fact...
$ echo -ne "\033" | od -x
0000000 001b
0000001
So, od got exactly one character, which was an ESC.
