  Not on my machine :-)
  Hadn't really thought about before, tho', so did some
    checking
  Examples: vim interprets C-[, which is a good
              thing - 'cuz it's easier to reach than ESC. 
            Midnight Commander: If ESC-ESC, such as aborting
              a popup feature is expected C-[ - C-[ does not abort the
              feature. If ESC-TAB is expected, then C-[ - ESC does
              the same.
            Firefox recognizes C-[, C-]
            Konsole and gnome-terminal appear to see C-[
              as ESC
