sounds like a perl module.

Did you check cpan.org ???

Hi Navin:

".pm" = Perl Module.

http://search.cpan.org/~rgiersig/Expect-1.21/Expect.pod

http://search.cpan.org/~rgiersig/Expect-1.21/

If you have a Perl script that requires this, you can install in by running:

# perl -MCPAN -e shell

...follow the prompts for setup and install what you need.

Regards!

Hi (again):

> it took me to the cpan prompt....instead of installation...?

I suspect you have never configured your environment for CPAN so I pointed you there to begin the process and do the install.

Well, PPM for ActiveState distibutions or manually:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
