Sorry got distracted by other things. Didn't _expect_ setting up `expect` on Windows to be non-trivial! Going to give it a crack tonight but the setup you've got seems quite...

heh yeah, though I may have a solution via TCL (ActiveState's TCL) `$ choco install activetcl` `$ teapot install Expect` Will have to see how this goes.

Hi mate, Thanks for reporting this. Are you able to tell me a few things to try and reproduce this on our end? - Which distribution and version (or if...
