Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi all

I am trying to create a script to automate the creating of filesystems.
The problem I am having is as follows:-
After creating the Log Logical Volume, I want to format it, using the logform command.
The Logform command expects user intervention, by typing 'y' and 'enter' to continue.
How do I automate the 'y' and 'enter' part from within a korne shell script????

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

I don't know the logform dialog, but research "here documents".
This is an example of an ftp dialog. ftp requires user input after it starts.

Code:

ftp somenode <<EOF
 USER username passwd
 cd /path
 get somefile
 bye
EOF

<<EOF (The eof part is your choice, use characters that are not part of any command and are not interpreted to mean anything by the shell )

Thanks Jim!

Works great, much appreciated!
