Hello All,
I am the author of expect-lite which relies heavily
on expect. The version in the cygwin repository is quite old (from
2003). I have compiled a modern version of expect (v 5.45) based on TCL 8.5.
Expect, originally written by Don Libes, is a program that "talks" to
other inter
distro.
I have included in the package the tcl lib for 8.5. It will get
installed when this package is installed.
I hope that helps,
Craig...

Hello Chris Sutcliffe & Christopher Faylor,
Apparently, I started off on the wrong foot. I apologize to the list.
I respectfully request that the expect and TCL packages in the cygwin
distro be updated. I have the sources I used (earlier) to create
expect version 5.45, and they can be found at:
egards,

Dave,
This sounds like a not unreasonable solution (having 2 sets of
tcl/expect packages). I can see that there might be a confusion factor
for newbies, so it would be good to get a few more opinions.
If it is acceptable, I would happily contribute/maintain the TCL 8.5,
expect 5.45 packages.

Hi All,
I have developed automation software based on TCL/Expect called
expect-lite. However the version in the Cygwin repo is quite old (from
2003). After a bit of effort, I have compiled a more modern version of
TCL/Expect under Cygwin.
Is there someone who would be willing to take the binaries
Hi Stas,
This may help you. I had the need to compile a more recent version of
expect on cygwin for my open source project expect-lite. Expect is built
on TCL, and I used the most recent version 8.5.9.

I have put the recent version of
