Ito, 28 October, 1998 + + Expect library adds IO class a method called expect(), which +does similar act to tcl's expect extension. + +The usage of the method is: + + IO#expect(pattern,timeout=9999999) + +where `pattern' is an instance of String or Regexp and `timeout' +is Fixnum, which can be omitted. + When the method is called without block, it waits until the +input which matches the pattern is obtained from the IO or the time +specified as the timeout passes. When the pattern is obtained from the +IO, the method returns an array. The first element of the array is the +entire string obtained from the IO until the pattern matches. The +following elements indicates the specific pattern which matched to the +anchor in the regular expression. If the method ends because of +timeout, it returns nil. + When the method is called with block, the array is passed as +the block parameter. -- cgit v1.2.1
