Hi Managers,

Thanks for all sugestions. Seems that "Expect" is the best option as
suggested by:

Thanks for everybody else that gave me a hand.


Original Question:

Hi Managers,

I'm trying to send a RETURN (ENTER) to a process as part of a routine
inside a shell script. I mean, when the process ask the operator to
issue a RETURN to continue some task, I want to trap that and send the
RETURN via script. Does anybody have any idea?
I'll summarize.

TIA

Wander
