Ctrl-] is "\x1d".

I don not clearly understand what you want to do but maybe this
helps. I once wrote a tool that feeds the input queue with some
characters before executing another process. To use it write
something like:

  fork {
    $stdin.unget "login username\rpassword verysecret\rsomecmd\r\x1d"
    exec "telnet otherhost 110"
  }

And there you are. Notice that the enter key sends "\r", not "\n".
