Copy/Paste text as commands in AIX
Hello, I'm absolutely new to this world... but I've a problem with a terminal connected via PuTTY (or Termlite) to an AIX 5.1 application.

The problem: I need to paste from clipboard a text containing both input text strings and special keys as ESC, Arrows and so on, to execute in the AIX application. I seeked solutions in the web, but I didn't find what I needed.
I think it is some like an "escape sequence", or barely a character, but I tried some of them without results. Hope to find help.

Please excuse-me also for the bad english
(I'm italian)

Some terminal emulators (e.g. Reflection) have macro or command language capabilities which facilitate task automation.
