[NMLUG] a way to "fake" interaction

[mike at garfias.org (Mike Garfias)]

Expect tho its more of a scripting deal than a "tool".

There is a Perl module that provides expect-like functionality, I've used it
and it works good.

Jody Harris spoke forth with the blessed manuscript:

> prompted, I'd be set.
