Question

I am searching for a tool that behaves similarly to Unix's expect tool (or at least, its main function).

I want to automate command-line interactive programs with it.

EDIT: I am preferring single executables or small apps without big multi megabyte depencies.

Ty.

Was it helpful?

Solution

Take a look at ActiveState's Tcl distribution which has a port of Expect for Windows.

OTHER TIPS

I guess AutoIt is what you need.

I your familiar with expect, then why not install Cygwin and run it that way?

You could use pexpect, written in Python.

Late answer: Expect.exe, compiled with Go, running Lua-scripts. Fairly new, but does exactly what it is supposed to do. See https://github.com/zetamatta/expect/
