pyexpect.py provides some Expect-like capabilities for Python/Tkinter
programs.  It provides a class Expect which knows how to 
  o send data to a stream (Expect.send())
  o wait for a client-specified interval (Expect.timeout) for 
    stream input to match a set of regular expressions (Expect.expect())
  o cancel an in-progress expect() invocation (Expect.cancel())

Clients should take care to supply only file objects which are set for
non-blocking I/O.

pyexpect.py includes an "if __name__ == '__main__':" clause to illustrate
its use.
