Hi all.
I have an expect script which for walks across servers, checks freespace and provides sorted list of biggest files
The problem is with timeout:
- if it too short then sometimes expect does wait till find and sort commands finish
- if it too long then i have to wait for a while on each host.
Pls advise

There is a typo, i mean "if timeout is too short then sometimes expect does NOT wait till find and sort commands finish"

script - make record of a terminal session
SYNOPSIS

The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.
The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.
NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.
