+SUMMARY = "tool for automating interactive applications according to a script"
+DESCRIPTION = "Expect is a tool for automating interactive applications according to a script. \
+Following the script, Expect knows what can be expected from a program and what \
+the correct response should be. Expect is also useful for testing these same \
+applications. And by adding Tk, you can also wrap interactive applications in \
+X11 GUIs. An interpreted language provides branching and high-level control \
+structures to direct the dialogue. In addition, the user can take control and \
+interact directly when desired, afterward returning control to the script. \
