библиотека программных диалогов с интерактивными программами (programmed dialogue library with interactive programs)
Смотри также (See also)
An alternative to this library is the expect program. expect
interprets scripts written in a high-level language which direct
the dialogue. In addition, the user can take control and
interact directly when desired. If it is not absolutely
necessary to write your own C program, it is much easier to use
expect to perform the entire interaction. It is described
further in the following references:

expect(1), alarm(3), read(2), write(2), fdopen(3), execve(2),
execvp(3), longjmp(3), pty(4).
There are several examples C programs in the test directory of
expect's source distribution which use the expect library.
