I've just started exploring the Expect language and have quickly hit a little bit of a speed bump. But I'm not sure it's Expect that's the problem.
In an FC3 gnome-terminal, I try to run the following script: ---------------------- #!/usr/bin/expect -- spawn ssh 192.168.0.9 expect "word: " send "password\r" expect "]$ " interact ----------------------
I don't think it's possible to get any simpler than that. It completes successfully and everything seems to be just fine. Until I attempt to run a command in the newly spawned ssh session that generates a fair amount of output such as "ls -la /usr/bin" or cat'ing a larger text file. The output of such a command starts off like normal but before it finishes, the output gets "stuck", for lack of a better word. A few screenfuls of output go by and then it simply stops in it's tracks. The output jiggles around a bit in the term window but the output doesn't finish. The cursor seems stuck in place. I can't Ctrl-c out of it either but rather I have to manually kill it.
Does this seem like a gnome-terminal problem or a script problem? Thanks!
