How can I install 'expect' on uwin? Thx, Harmon Sommer
There are basically two options: * find and install tcl for Windows, or * port tcl to AST This is a common problem with many unix tools ported to Windows, even though they work well with Windows as such, they typically rely on the windows API and may not always run in a UWIN session without a console. (I like using Putty to ssh via localhost session into Uwin) Things I've tried are Vim and Python. Theses tools get confused when they get invoked from UWin, and expect they're running under Windows. Cheers, Henk Harmon Sommer:
: Henk: Thank you for the advice. I installed Active State TCL and then brought in the 'expect' package. All works well. Harmon
