EXPECT AND SFTP

[Matthew Claridge]

I don't think you need the 'interact' command in your expect script if 
you're piping things into it......

alternatively, pass the filename (or list of filenames or name of file 
containing a list of filenames) to expect on the command line, like:

./myftp username machine passwd filename

then just handle this inside your expect script:
