I don't why there is no output....

Given the following...

#!/usr/bin/python

import pexpect

p = pexpect.spawn('cat')
p.sendline('1234')
p.expect (['1234'])
p.expect (['1234'])

I no output when I run it...

[cdalten@localhost oakland]$ ./ecat.py
[cdalten@localhost oakland]$

I don't get it. I was expecting to see the output from both the tty
and cat. Instead, I see nothing. Why?

Never mind. I figured it out.

Well, don't keep us in suspenders. What was the problem?
