you would include "\r" in the string you are sending. Just FYI, everything works in pairs of lookfor send so, if you are trying to watch for your login prompt, then send your userid you'd have something like: ogin my_id You can also have 'sub-pairs' of 'expect'/'send' like this for hitting enter a few times: ogin--ogin--ogin--ogin--ogin my_id The chat program will look for ogin, not seeing it send what is after the - , which in this case is nothing, so will send a CR, then watch for ogin , etc until it gets to the end of the string. If it sees ogin anywhere in that sequence, it will drop out and send my_id. If you find you really need to send the \r, you should make the sequence look like this: ogin-"\r"-ogin-"\r"-ogin-"\r"-ogin my_id Tim PS: This is all bringing back horrible memories of HDB uucp -- (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] / (home) [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.buoy.com/~tps "Have you ever seen an atom, Little bits of everything floating by, Take a good look at them, Collectively they compose all you see including your eye" - "Whoops" - Blues Traveler ** Disclaimer: My views/comments/beliefs, as strange as they are, are my own.** -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
