Expect (more specific: IO-Tty) uses pseudo-terminals, which are only
available under CygWin, so that should answer the first question.
Apart from that, no, there are no specifics for Win2k that I know of,
simply because there is only marginal reason to use Expect on Windows.
You see, apart from telnet (try Net::Telnet instead) there are only a
few command-line programs on Win2k, so what do you actually want to
control with Expect? Sure, Cygwin provides a lot of standard unix
tools, but then, why moving to Win2k in the first place?
Sorry if this seems like a rant, but you are probably better off if you
install Linux on those PCs...
