Disclaimer: I don't know anything about windows. This is
just a suggestion and it's probably not correct, but I
figured I'd post it on the off-chance that it is.
Expect.pm allows communication with other programs/processes.
A description can be found at
cpan. It would be used for something like
having your program ftp a file (start ftp, expect 'username'
and send the username, expect 'password' and send the
password, etc).
To quote: "Expect.pm is built
to either spawn a process or take an existing filehandle
and interact with it such that normally interactive
tasks can be done without operator assistance. This
concept makes more
sense if you are already familiar with the versatile
Tcl version of Expect."
