in reply to Tough automation question on windows

You're looking for a windows compatible version of Expect. It doesn't currently exist despite that people having been trying for a long time.

If a solution is possible, it would probably be based around Win32::Console. Or rather, the Win32 APIs that undrlie that module. But it would probably need to be writen in C or XS and would not be a trivial undertaking.
