Hi, I need to navigate a text based menu with using Net::Telnet module, capture the out put into a file and parse it. In the menu based navigation after the selection of first 2 hirercies .....when i send a key for next menu navigation ....the module seems to myterious send some "\r" / "\n" ...i can't figure out wher it is picking it from ..... hence causing me the program to navigate to wrong menus selection.... how could this be handled any help/hint is appreciated... also i observed at times the output of a previous selection is sent on subsequent selection at times. i have tried with both input_record_seperator and out_put_record_seperated ...n they haven been of much help. appreciate quick responses
