EXPECT - advanced help
Hi,
i need to automate installation (console) of product and found except as solution.iam new to expect and know basics of expect.
i am struck with the following cases and need help for them to continue:

1) in every screen of installation at the end we have [next] [cancel] kind of buttons which we need to select them using tab key and then press enter on that key
2) we have some kind of checkbox implemented where we need to select option by moving cursor over that place using tab key and then space bar to select/deselect that option
3) we have dropdown kind of thing where we need to use tab to go to that place and press enter there
4) in order to accept license we have + _ at right side, where we need to read entire license by pressing +(move to + using tab and press enter till license is finished)

For above cases i need help in order to move forward.
thanks in advance

       The following options are supported:

       --border-effect=effect  Effect to add to the border.

       --delay=int	       Pause for int seconds before capturing the window or screen

       --include-border        Include the window border with the screenshot.

       --interactive	       Interactively set options.

       --window 	       Capture a screenshot of the window in which the mouse pointer is located.
