in thread Net::Telnet: how to detect an empty line...
Maybe daemon isn't the best way to describe it. I'll call it a process. This process has built into it the capability to allow users to interact with it through telnet. You would most likely set parameter, look up parameters, stuff like that. I happen to be scripting to it, and have discovered that the user's prompt is only an empty line with a blinking cursor on it.
So my question is, how do I approach this problem using Net::Telnet. Net::Telnet is very simple to use, and I would prefer using it. I suppose I could time the commands, but that doesn't quite sit well with me. Any advice would be appreciated.
