Launch a subprocess in a pseudo terminal (pty), and interact with
|
|
both the process and its pty.
|
|
|
|
Sometimes, piping stdin and stdout is not enough. There might be
|
|
a password prompt that doesn't read from stdin, output that changes
|
|
when it's going to a pipe rather than a terminal, or curses-style
|
|
interfaces that rely on a terminal. If you need to automate these
|
|
things, running the process in a pseudo terminal (pty) is the answer.
