Using Expect to automate file transers through Telnet with YMODEM...
I have a telnet device that transfers files using YMODEM, and I would like to use Expect to automate the process of initiating the transfer on the device end and starting rz on the receiving end. There's an example in Exploring Expect that is similar to what I'm trying to accomplish, the differences being that the ... 28 May 2010 13:44

The same can be said for [vwait], because any event handler can fire du... 26 May 2010 04:48

keyword arguments for tcl proc
Hi All, Our work involves modularizing the existing code a bit too much. So we have to write many procedures (procs) which recognizes keyword arguments and call them later. We know, we can implement this feature into tcl procs using switch statement the way we are using now. I agree also many packages are availa... 26 May 2010 05:53
