Send modifier keys to the attached pane via .send_keys()

[RPiAwesomeness]

I really like the look of this project. However, for something that I need to do, I need to be able to send a modifier key, Ctrl to be exact.

I've tried a few different things and I'll continue looking around for a solution, but I figured I would post an issue here in case this is not currently possible.

Would C-key work?

For Ctrl-a, do C-a or ^-a

@tony Unfortunately I already tried that and it just gives an error, both in zsh and and in bash:

I'm considering making enter=False and suppress_history=False by default.

Give this a shot, it worked for me:

pane.libtmux.Server().sessions[0].attached_window.panes[0].

Quick snippet:

libtmux.Server().sessions[0].attached_window.panes[0].send_keys('C-c', enter=False, suppress_history=False)

@tony Sorry for not responding soon, I was gone and didn't take any machines with me. I had to tweak your snippets to work, but running

libtmux.Server().sessions[0].attached_window.panes[0].send_keys('C-c', enter=False, suppress_history=False)

did work, it did seem to send Ctrl-C!
