Prompt how to use multiple values

[baf28]

Hello
I use Nokia equipment
When I create a new interface in services, my session freezes due to the fact that first the prompt is # and then $:

A:KM002038-CSA01# configure service vprn 411002
A:KM002038-CSA01>config>service>vprn# interface "to_KM8038_ENB_S1" create
A:KM002038-CSA01>config>service>vprn>if$

How can I specify multiple characters in a command line wait string?
I did # || & - it did not bring success.

Hi baf28,

You would use WaitForStrings() as opposed to WaitForString().

I did not understand you. I do not use scripts to insert the configuration, I press ctr+v.
How then what you advised can be my best?

I can’t understand how to specify two values for # and $ in the session settings?

I realized that they would have come out of what I pasted from the clipboard through a script. I took and modified one of your scripts, it turned out like this:

    sWait = 0
    for strLine in vLines:
        # Send the next line to the remote
        crt.Screen.Send(strLine + "\r")
        
        bSuccess = False
        # If the current line isn't empty, wait for it to be echo'd back to us
        if not strLine == "":
            # Wait for the remote to echo the line back to SecureCRT; bail if
            # the remote fails to echo the line back to us within 3 seconds.
            bSuccess = crt.Screen.WaitForStrings(["#", "$"], int(sWait))
        else:

And all the same, I think that a simple paste operation from the clipboard should not be cumbersome and executed by a script.
The simpler the better.

Hi baf28,

Are you saying you have configured Prompt in the Send delay options grouping in the Terminal / Emulation / Advanced category of Session Options?

If so, you can't presently specify multiple prompts.

I have added this thread to a feature request in our product enhancement database for the ability to specify multiple prompts for the send delay prompt option. Should a future release of SecureCRT include this feature, notification will be posted here.

If you prefer direct email notification, send an email to support@vandyke.com and include Feature Request - Forum Thread #14082 in the subject line or use this form from the support page of our website.

Thank you, I will wait for the developers to implement this.
In the meantime, I made a script that does this and stops when it detects an error. If it’s not difficult for you, look at it and maybe you will find errors in it. I would be very glad if you could help me make the script better.
