Expect


Expect is a tool for automating interactive applications that have a command-line interface. Expect makes it easy to automate repetitive tasks or to add a graphical interface to an existing command-line tool.

For more information about Expect, visit the web site http://expect.nist.gov. You can also refer to the book Exploring Expect: A Tcl-based Toolkit for Automating Interactive Programs, by Don Libes, published by O'Reilly & Associates, 1994.


Note: Expect command names that "collide" with command names in the Tcl/Tk core (for example, send) can confuse TclPro Checker when it checks an Expect script, causing it to report syntax errors. To avoid this, use the exp_ prefix for all such ambiguous commands (for example, use exp_send instead of send).
