automate the input

Smilie

I tried a lot of things.

When i start quoting i always get messages of command not found. I treid normal single quote ', double quote " and single right quote ` and single left quote ´. Which one should i be using ? Do i have to quote the whole line ? I tried the whole line and parts of the line.

I tried to put the blahblah on the same line .
When i use :

program <> $result 2>&1 << blahblah
the output is coming to my screen

When using spaces between the < < then i get syntax errors near the unexpected token <

Most of the times it keeps waiting for the input. When i enter the string (stays invisible to me) the program starts without problem.

PPI::Token::QuoteLike(3)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				  PPI::Token::QuoteLike(3)

NAME
PPI::Token::QuoteLike - Quote-like operator abstract base class INHERITANCE
PPI::Token::QuoteLike isa PPI::Token isa PPI::Element DESCRIPTION
The "PPI::Token::QuoteLike" class is never instantiated, and simply provides a common abstract base class for the five quote-like operator classes. In PPI, a "quote-like" is the set of quote-like things that exclude the string quotes and regular expressions. The subclasses of "PPI::Token::QuoteLike" are: qw{} - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Words `` - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Backtick qx{} - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Command qr// - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Regexp <FOO> - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Readline The names are hopefully obvious enough not to have to explain what each class is. See their pages for more details. You may note that the backtick and command quote-like are treated separately, even though they do the same thing. This is intentional, as the inherit from and are processed by two different parts of the PPI's quote engine. SUPPORT
