I can't imagine we'd want to officially support that sort of usage. We've broken "screen scraping" types of apps before, with things like column alignments in 'svn status' output. And you already can't screen-scrape password prompts, at least on Unix, where we end up calling the OS function getpass() which uses the console. So it would only be possible to drive prompts like whether to accept an unsigned server certificate. I'd say, if you don't have an actual console at hand, you really really should be using --non-interactive. -- Peter Samuelson | org-tld!p12n!peter | http://p12n.org/
