Hey all,

I need a straight-forward script for expect.  I have
been trying to read the documentation for expect, but
am a bit overwhelmed.

I need the script to look for a given phrase, and give
an answer for me.

Here is my attempt so far:

#!/usr/bin/expect

spawn telnet aix
  expect "Is this the same patient?" {send N ;
exp_continue}
exit


I have gotten a slightly different form of the above
to automatically log in for me.  My problem is that I
need to go through a complex set of menus to get to
the point where it starts asking me the same question
10,000 times.

Looking in the documentation, I see a command to turn
control over to the user (i.e. me) for awhile, then
return control to the expect script.

I am still not grasping how the program cycles, etc.

Has anyone played with this enough to help me out?

Thanks
Kevin
