Has anyone else here looked at Pexpect? It's a pure-Python module that uses ptys to support mmost of the capability of Tcl expect. http://pexpect.sourceforge.net/ This is an 0.94 beta, but the author appears to know what he is doing, and it would be an excellent boost to Python's capabilities for administrative scripting. Among other things, it would subsume most of what Tcl is actually used for. I'm thinking this is a very strong candidate to enter the Python library when it reaches 1.0 level.
