I am working on capturing lines of output from a korn script that is used to import optical disks into a jukebox. The script is running on Solaris 8. Insertdiscs calls the binary named vimport which starts up and prompts for a disk to be inserted. I am able to capture output with this line below which would be perfect except that as soon as insertdiscs is piped to tee (as opposed to running it alone) I need to hit enter twice to get it to start vimport (see below) for each loop.
I have tried
as well as piping from echo "\n" and all that gets me is infinite new lines at every prompt from the interactive vimport script.
This is the insertdiscs script that is called from my code above:
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Brett

Here's an example of the stuff in the file:
