[plug] Perl Question

[Matthew Robinson]

Having not played with Device::SerialPort I can't guarantee that this will
work but to put a Ctrl-Z into a scalar should simply be a case of:

$scalar = "\cZ";

The \c is the escape character for Ctrl (like \n is the character for
newline).

Hope this helps,

Matt
