expect



Hi all,

has anybody already tried to port expect? At first glimpse, the most annoying problem seems to be that expect won't compile without tcl. While tcl is part of Mac OS X, not all source and config files needed by expect are present, and therefore expect won't compile.

Of course, one solution would be to download and compile tcl again; but this seems stupid, especially given the fact that while tcl compiles out of the box, it doesn't pass all tests, so some twisting seems necessary that's obviously already done for the Mac OS X version of tcl.

What is the best solution here? Could Darwin help? (I must admit I have no experience in dealing with the Darwin details.)

Thanks for any hints!

			Bye
