[Simh] scripting simh

[Tim Newsham]

Hi,
    slightly unusual task -- I'm interested in scripting a
simh session where I send input to simh's guest as well
as occasionally to simh itself (ie. ^E followed by some commands).
(My primary target is simh running in unix).
I tried the obvious -- sending data to simh over a pipe
connected to its stdin, but it does not seem to work well.
I even tried slowing down the input stream ... no luck
even with very simple tasks (ie. enter "unix" at the "@"
prompt, then enter "root" at the "login:" prompt).

Has anyone done anything like this?  Any recommendations?
