Shell script answer prompts?

Hi,

I'm writing a script that calls a function to generate a certificate. In generating this certificate, I'm asked a series of questions. I was wondering, is there a way to pre-program my script to answer these questions in the same way all the time. I saw something like

Code:

EOF>>
y
EOF

Assuming y is the answer I want. If I get like 5 questions and I want answers other than y for each question, how would that work? Thanks!

Elt
