I've had some comments that people may not have heard of the +original Tcl version of Expect, or where documentation (book form) on Expect +may be obtained. + The Tcl version of expect is a creation of Don Libes (libes@nist.gov). +The Tcl Expect home page is http://expect.nist.gov/. + Don has written an excellent in-depth tutorial of the Tcl Expect, +which is _Exploring Expect_. It is the O'reilly book with the monkey on the +front. Don has several references to other articles on the Expect web page. + + As always, please let me know if there's something you'd like to see +documented that isn't. Please check the included FAQ and tutorial directory +first. :-) + + Thanks, + + Austin Schutz + tex@habit.com |
