Okay, here are some things I found out.
1) Linux telnet is sending a 0x0a for the enter key 2) Windows putty program is sending a 0x0d for the enter key 3) Windows telnet is sending a 0x0d0a for the enter key 4) The device (don't ask) I'm working with doesn't like the Linux telnet
I've tried coding the expect with 0x0d:
expect ">" send "m2" send "\x0d"
But, this doesn't seem to work.
I'm starting to run out of ideas.

I need to write a script that will contact a remote system using

Check out expect. I had to do this with some data radios as of late, and
it worked out pretty well.
