You could install 'expect'

INTRODUCTION
       Expect is a program that "talks" to other interactive programs according
to a script.  Following the script, Expect knows what can be expected from a
program  and  what  the  correct  response should  be.   An  interpreted
language  provides branching and high-level control structures to direct the
dialogue.  In addition, the user can take control and interact directly when
desired, afterward returning control to the script.
