Maybe this should be caffeine lounge? Anyways, started a new job this week and they've got an IBM Power System server client (actually its the old RS/6000, which became the power series).

I'm trying to whip up some macros and I was able to get a little code piece by recording a macro and viewing what the edit macro menu returned to me. Does anyone know whst language this is or where I can find some info/manual/book/tutorial on the commands this thing will take rather than have to find them all via testing and checking macros?

Here's the code sample I found:

wait timeout 3
	case " " 
		send "'2'"
	timeout
		send "'2'"
end wait
wait timeout 3
	case " " 
		send "'2'"
	timeout
		send "'2'"
end wait
wait timeout 3
	case " 22" 
		send "^m"
	timeout
		send "^m"
end wait

Also, anyone who is familiar with RS/6000 or similar versions, any info you have floating around in your brain, I would certainly love if you'd share with me. I get a feeling a lot of my day to day activities are going to involve playing with this little green screen.


Here are some dancing tazmanian devils for your time:




Oh, by the way, this was just a macro to enter the input of "22" and then a return.

Is it Expect? It looks like it. See this link for an example of Expect code, and for more info:

Thanks! Looks like I have another book to pick up for my O'Reily infested programming library
