What's wrong with the example in the
Expect POD?
$exp->expect($timeout,
[ qr/username: /i, sub { my $self = shift;
$self->send("$username\r");
exp_continue; }],
[ qr/password: /i, sub { my $self = shift;
$self->send("$password\r");
exp_continue; }],
$shell_prompt);
All you need to add before it is something like:
print "username: ";
my $username = <STDIN>;
print "password: ";
my $password = <STDIN>;
chomp $username;
chomp $password;
I've never used Expect, but the POD seems pretty clear.
