[comp.dcom.lans] Telnet scripting language

mitchell@mwunix.mitre.org (William Mitchell) (08/15/90)

Have you ever used a scripting language for telnet that resembles the 
kind of capability that you get using something like procomm, kermit,
bitcom and a modem?

I would like to use telnet to go over the ethernet to reach a modem.  
Once there, I would like to be able to use the modem effectively, waiting
for certain character strings to appear, then sending the appropriate 
response.  If you know of something like this, and could send even
the smallest hint to me, I would be greatful.

Thanks.

On the Macintosh there is at least one general purpose comm package that can
do this. MicroPhone II has support for Telenet and a very extensive script-
ing language.
