        ah wow, would you look at that. Still on my little voyage of
discovery here I give you "expect" and "autoexpect". Handy little linux
utilities. You launch any program with autoexpect and perform some task.
Your entire interaction with said program is recorded and scripted for
"expect". You run the script and it repeats the whole interaction. Use it to
schedule fsck, dialups, pine etc. Absolutely great, and here's me writing
shell scripts like a muppet !
man autoexpect
man expect
