I used perl for CLI on Cisco routers and few T1 access equipments and that
worked great.

I am running into problem when I want to use Perl for Menu driven interface
(Not GUI).
Once, for example, I telnet in to a network card and gets menu as a result,
I can not read/select anything in that menu using Perl.

I need some help on how to resolve this.
I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
