To get you started, there is autoexpect. Check the man page.
Ah! :-)
Essentially, you do your thing once and autoexpect saves what is needed to automate it. The script usually needs editing to remove things that are too specifc. But it does the grunt work. expect does much more than what these simplistic automated login scripts do. It is worht checking out. And, it is cross-platform.
Very nice. I did use things like this, time ago, to connect to a BBS terminal and fetch my mail package for bluewave. My script was quite complicated, but it did it all pretty fast. Nice to know there is a good for all program to do that kind of thing in linux. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
