(I posted this about a week ago in comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc, and got no
response. Thus the reposting.)

I am having problems with a script for Telemate for hooking into
the local Public Access Unix Box (sactoh0). However, this is not a
standard login. What I need to do is wait 5 seconds after calling
in, then send a ^M. If I don't receive a "login:" within 3 seconds,
then I want to send a ^M again, then go back and wait three seconds
for the "login:" again. (A loop in essence). However, if I do get
a "login:", then I should continue the login sequence.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

This is what my script looks like:

Waitfor 5          ; wait until string matched
Put "^M^M^M"

Waitfor "login:"
Put "mholtz"

Waitfor "Password:"
Put "^&^M"
