I agree, Expect (written by Don Libes at NIST and in the public domain) was designed 
explicitly to handle such tasks.  You might want to use autoexpect to create a script 
for you based on your interaction with the application, then edit the script.

You can read more at the official Expect site: http://expect.nist.gov and/or Don 
Libes' excellent book, "Exploring Expect" from O'Reilly & Associates:
