[Dxspider-support] CGI - now to AX25 for D700

[Bill Vodall]

This is almost what I was just going to ask for...

> expect -exact "login: "

> expect "dxspider >"
> send -- "set/noecho\r"

> send -- "sh/dx 25\r"
> log_user 1
> expect "dxspider >"
> log_user 0
> send -- "bye\r"
> expect eof


Has anybody implemented a scheme to logon to a local cluster,
like the above, and then tweaked the data to send it out the AX25
stack for local D700 (APRS) users?   It won't be a very large PERL
script but I'd like to know if anybody else has done it before
I jump in.

thanks,
