+ | ======Synopsis:====== | ||
+ | [[on]] [<modes>]exec_prompt [<serial#>] [-|^]<match> { <action> } | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Description:====== | ||
+ | This hook is triggered whenever an [[exec command|EXEC]]ed process displays a "prompt". | ||
+ | More precisely, it is triggered when the process returns any line of | ||
+ | output that is not terminated by a newline. This is generally the case | ||
+ | with interactive commands, such as nslookup(1). | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Parameters:====== | ||
+ | |$0 |process number of name of the [[exec command|EXEC]]ed process | | ||
+ | |$1 |prompt string to look for | | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Default behavior:====== | ||
+ | If you do not suppress this event, the client will format the message | ||
+ | and display it to your screen **UNLESS** you are redirecting the output | ||
+ | of that [[exec]] to somewhere else. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Examples:====== | ||
+ | To hook the prompt when using nslookup interactively: | ||
+ | on ^exec_prompt "% >" { | ||
+ | assign foo $0 | ||
+ | input "nslookup> " { | ||
+ | msg %${foo} $* | ||
+ | } | ||
+ | } | ||
