+      Pexpect is similar to the Don Libes "Expect" system, but Pexpect
+      as a different interface that is easier to understand. Pexpect
+      is basically a pattern matching system. It runs programs and
+      watches output. When output matches a given pattern Pexpect can
+      respond as if a human were typing responses. Pexpect can be used
+      for automation, testing, and screen scraping. Pexpect can be
+      used for automating interactive console applications such as
+      ssh, ftp, passwd, telnet, etc. It can also be used to control
+      web applications via "lynx", "w3m", or some other text-based web
+      browser. Pexpect is pure Python. Unlike other Expect-like
+      modules for Python Pexpect does not require TCL or Expect nor
+      does it require C extensions to be compiled. It should work on
+      any platform that supports the standard Python pty module.
