Unless you need it's ability to capture all input you might be able to get away without using script and just use simple scripting:
matt@xena:/mfs/matt/nodemcu/esptool$ (csi -q<< EOF (define (f x)(+ x 123)) (f 8) EOF ) > example1.txt matt@xena:/mfs/matt/nodemcu/esptool$ cat example1.txt csi> (define (f x)(+ x 123)) csi> (f 8) 131 csi> On Sat, Jan 23, 2016 at 3:39 PM, Matt Gushee <m...@gushee.net> wrote: > Hi, James-- > > On Sat, Jan 23, 2016 at 10:51 AM, Hefferon, James S. <jheffe...@smcvt.edu> > wrote: > >> >> Thank you for the "script" suggestion.
