Any experience with Expect

[Mark Wieder]

Glen-

I still don't get it. Replacing expect with rev would be a bad idea -
expect processes its own scripts to deal with commandline tools. It's
much better at this as a single-purpose tool than rev would be. Using
rev as a wrapper around expect would do... what? Provide a text box
for entering expect scripts? Launch expect with a shell command?

If you really need that, can't you just
get shell("expect < somescript")
