expect is a tool for automating interactive applications such as
telnet, ftp, passwd, fsck, rlogin, tip, etc.
Expect really makes this stuff trivial.
Expect is also useful for testing these same applications.
And by adding Tk, you can also wrap interactive applications in
X11
GUIs.
Expect is described in many books, articles, papers, and FAQs. There is an entire book on it available from O'Reilly.
