INTRODUCTION
Expect is a program that "talks" to other interactive pro
grams according to a script. Following the script, Expect
knows what can be expected from a program and what the
correct response should be. An interpreted language pro
vides branching and high-level control structures to
direct the dialogue. In addition, the user can take con
trol and interact directly when desired, afterward return
ing control to the script.
