[Expectperl-discuss] Question with expect on storing command output.

[Rajan V. <raj...@gm...>]

All,
I am using Perl with Expect for automating wpa_cli for wps.
I have a general question. For example if a command has been sent to
to either a remote machine or a spawned process, how to read the
entire output of the command executed. How does expect store so
that I can parse and use it for later purpose?


For example, if I telnet to a remote machine and read a file (cat
<filename>)
using expect. How can I store the entire cat output in a variable and use it
for later parsing? Any pointer would be helpful.

Thank you.
