cadaver: how to automate from command line (Vieri)

[Eugene Dorfman]

Hi
there is indeed no way to script in cadaver directly, however there are 2
(or more) alternatives you have there:
1. use expect - a special program which allows to create a special tcl
script automating other application running in terminal
2. I patched cadaver so that it accepts script-file as an option and then
executes this script-file line by line. This patch however never made it to
the cadaver svn repositary, I use it locally on my checked out source tree.
If you are interested I can send you a linux build of patched cadaver and
the patch itself to apply to your source tree.
