- There *is* an old, established Perl solution: "chat2.pl" which does
- everything (well, basically) "expect" does but you get it in the
- expressive Perl environment. "chat2.pl" is delivered with the Perl
- source.
-
- Randal: "interact()" still hasn't made it into Perl5alpha8
- "chat2.pl", so I've included a version which does.
