As far as I can tell Expect in it's native form is simply a command line. Tcl/Tk was used to create a GUI enviroment for it. So Rev (which is a far better GUI enviroment ) could be used to develop a more custom interface for particular users.
So if you ignore the addition of Tcl/Tk you have a command line package which could be accessed with Rev through the shell or possibly make Expect a Rev external. I guess what I am trying to get at is that Rev should be able to replace Tcl. On 6/24/05, Mark Wieder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Glen- > > Friday, June 24, 2005, 7:08:43 AM, you wrote: > > GB> 1.
