Someone know pexpect module?
I've a problem working with it...

I need to run some commands on remote hosts, like ls, df -k etc..All right.
Although, when i launch a command that have a "more" inside, i don't know
what i must expect!
An example:

if i want to run an "ls -l | more" on a remote host, it don't return me a
prompt, but a "-------------More-------------"...thus i don't know how much
this.

I've tried with:

child.expect('.*')

it works, but do not return any value.

Any idea?
I hope to have clearly explained my problem with my bad english...:-)

Thank you in advance
Regards
