Hello!

How can i use the output of the remote program as the input
of an expect send clause?

For example, the remote program responds with:

My name is lampros

(while "lampros" is a totally random name)

I want to send back to the remote program something like:

Hello, lampros and have a nice day.

How can I accomplish that?

Thanks
