The following commands: set timeout 1 expect -re "!!!" {send_user "rrr\n"} timeout {send_user "bbb\n"} never raises the timeout. If I try exactly the same commands on my solaris box, it replies "bbb" after about one second. Any idea? Thank you. --Laurent - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
