* Package name : libterm-vt102-perl Version : 0.82 Upstream Author : Andrew Wood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://search.cpan.org/~ajwood/Term-VT102-0.82/VT102.pm * License : Artistic Programming Lang: Perl Description : Emulation of a VT102 terminal in a Perl data structure Term::VT102 provides emulates a VT102 terminal in a Perl data structure. You can print strings and VT102 control sequences to a VT102 objects and then query the contents of the "virtual screen". Like expect(1), this is primarily for use as a way of automatig processes. For instance, it is possible to write a script which connects via telnet to a full-screen service of some kind (such as a router, or a telephone switch9, uses this module to parse the output and therefore can tell what is currently "on the screen" and react accordingly. Expect(1) cannot really do this, as it is stream-oriented, rather than being able to tell, say, what's on the top row of the screen. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
