[Offtopic] How to send IAC as data via telnet?

Sorry for offtopic but I don't know where else to ask.
I'm translating the MUD to russian language. Russian letter "Ya" has
ascii code 255 which is IAC in telnet.  According to telnet docs, IAC must be
doubled to be sent as data but when I try to send IAC, IAC no characters are
sent at all. =( What I'm doing wrong?
