Introduction ------------- Exscript is a scripting language for automating Telnet or SSH sessions. It supports a wide range of features, such as parallelization, AAA authentication methods, TACACS, and a very simple template language. Please refer to the project page for updated documentation (see the links at the bottom of this announcement).

(The -a switch was added.) * It is now possible to skip the authentication procedure all-together. (The -n switch was added.) * The --no-prompt switch was added. * The priority of the "not" operator was decreased. Please refer to the documentation. * Support for regular expression modifiers was added. * The operating system and device detection mechanism was improved. * The default timeout was increased to 30 seconds (previous was 10s). * The "extract" keyword now supports a "from" operator for extracting a string from a variable. * The interpreter now has a --version flag. * Windows newline characters are now supported in exscripts. * The performance of prompt matching was greatly improved. * Cisco router detection was improved. * Fix: The "is not" operator was broken. * Fix: Escaping of "/" characters would not work. * Fix: "while" and "until" loops would sometimes not work. * Fix: Arithmetic operations with 0 no longer fail.
