Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How to pass variables to 3rd party unix menu? Post 62931 by tmarikle on Monday 21st of February 2005 02:30:32 PM

I believe that I have compiled expect on AIX 4 something so I can't imagine why it wouldn't. I've never heard of any platforms where it won't work. It does require TCL but that is about it.

It is a very useful utility when you need to batch control interactive programs. The name implies its functionality (though broader). You supply conditions to "expect" and respond with actions accordingly.

install-menu(1) 					      Debian GNU/Linux manual						   install-menu(1)

NAME
install-menu - Process a menu method and generate the menu files for a window manager or a menu-aware application. DESCRIPTION
update-menus(1) computes the list of menu entries and passes it in turn to the menu methods in /etc/menu-methods/. The task of a menu meth- ods is to generate menus for a specific window manager. install-menu provides a generic and customizable way to do that. The documentation of the install-menu definition language is available in the Debian Menu manual, a local copy being available in /usr/share/doc/menu/html. SYNOPSIS
install-menu [-vh] [--remove] <menu-method> Read menu entries from stdin in update-menus --stdout format and generate menu files using the specified menu-method. Normally used in menu method scripts as #! /usr/bin/install-menu. OPTIONS
-h,--help Show the help message and exit. --remove Remove the menu files instead of generating them. -v,--verbose Output messages about what the program is doing. COPYING
install-menu is distributed under the term of the GNU General Public License version 2, or (at your option) any later version. AUTHOR
