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. -- Brian Millett - [ Markab Ambassador, "The Long Dark"] "The forces of darkness do not move openly.
