title: send ctrl+a message on python socket
body: <p>I am trying to send the commands using python socket.</p>
  
  <p>I have to send 'ctrl+a' key stroke, first.</p>
  
  <p>Typically, I connect using telnet and type 'ctrl+a' then type the enter.
  In terminal 'ctrl+a' looked as '^A'.</p>
  
  <p>So I tried to send using python send function like below.
  s.send('^A')
  But it didn't work.</p>
  
  <p>It looked as '^A' on the terminal but it doesn't feel like the text.</p>
  
  <p>I need to send real 'ctrl+a' message.
  How can I do that?</p>
  
  <p>Please advice.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>
