hi Jeff,
Thanks for the feedback.
As for the 8.4a2 build that is the only release that appeared with Expect for the Macintosh. I agree, Expect should HAVE been included with the stock tclsh for the Mac. Apple comments???
Choosing the ftp example was merely to demonstrate console login and interaction. This was a simple example to show login and authentication for a UNIX style platform.
As for Perl, in large corporate environments remember coding is a collaboration. I may write the report tools in Tcl but I hand off the info to another person who maintains the web server. This admin may choose to code in Java or Pearl.
thanks,
Mike

It would be interesting and beneficial if expect could be part of the standard Mac OS X distribution.
Also, I do understand the reality of multi-language environments, especially in coporate environments. I just wanted to plug tclhttpd as well, for those that may be working on a smaller scale, or are looking for an all-inclusive approach for a project.
Thanks,
Jeff
