Expect for newbies

["Mann, James H." <JMann@xxxxxxxxxx>]

At my age learning new things is no longer easy, so before I venture off
into learning/writing Expect I'd like to be sure that it will do what I
need. So, for example, can you write a script which opens telnet, logs
you in, navigates to circ statistics and then emails a report?
I spent about two hours this morning trying to figure out my needs for
daily tasks, and came to the conclusion that I was doing steps which
could be replicated by a macro program.
And, do people trade Expect scripts?
 
Have a safe and enjoyable holiday.
 
TIA
