Actually it doesnt ask for anything. Program-one will initialize some variables and call some more scripts and run a program. Basically it keeps running but you can get back to shell when you press enter.
Lemme try with your suggestion. Thanks a lot
[Edit] Okay I just researched the program-one. It assigns some variables and then runs an alias intstart which is assigned so :
Code:
alias intstart
intstart='cd $HOME/intserver && intserver'
This shell file intserver is the actual file which runs the service to which the users login to (a web based interface). Now when I run program-one, I do get the shell back, but then the intserver process takes over and shows its messages and I have to press Enter again to get shell back.

Hmmm .. So I added a sleep 5 after the alias is called and added a return and it seems to be working for program-one.
Now I have to fix program-two which internally calls scp and my prompt gets stuck after scp displays the privacy banner.

ttyrec
TTYREC(1) General Commands Manual TTYREC(1)NAME
ttyrec - a tty recorder
SYNOPSIS
ttyrec [-a] [-u] [-e command] [file]
DESCRIPTION
Ttyrec is a tty recorder. It is a derivative of script(1) command for recording timing information with microsecond accuracy as well. It
can record emacs -nw, vi, lynx, or any programs running on tty.
Ttyrec invokes a shell and records the session until the shell exits. Recorded data can be played back with ttyplay(1). If the argument
file is given, the session will be recorded in that file. Otherwise, ttyrecord is used as default.
OPTIONS -a Append the output to file or ttyrecord, rather than overwriting it.
-u With this option, ttyrec automatically calls uudecode(1) and saves its output when uuencoded data appear on the session. It allow
you to transfer files from remote host. You can call ttyrec with this option, login to the remote host and invoke uuencode(1) on it
for the file you want to transfer.
-e command
Invoke command when ttyrec starts.
ENVIRONMENT
SHELL If the variable SHELL exists, the shell forked by ttyrec will be that shell. If it's not set, the Bourne shell is assumed. (Most
shells set this variable automatically).
