Sending the "down" key via Expect

Nick Leeson

Hi,
I am using an expect script to interact with lynx running on a remote
server.I am trying to figure out how to send the direction keys
....left(->), right(<-),up and down keys....I know i need to send their
equivalent ASCII values..but what would they be?
Please let me know...

Thanks...

Nick

If you have trouble with the escapes for the arrow buttons, you could
start lynx with vi-keys:

lynx -vikeys

and use h,j,k,l instead of left, down, up and right.
