Expect doesn't recognize a password prompt

Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi.
Here is beginning of my script

#!/usr/local/bin/expect --
set timeout 15
spawn /usr/local/account.sh -n modify
expect "Password:" {send "mypassword\r"}

But due to some terminal control sequences (or something else, dunno exactly) my password prompt is looking like this:

[[61;157R-n Password:

and expect doesn't recognize it. I tried to use "expect -re" instead of "expect" but no luck. Pls help. OS - Solaris 8

You may want to try autoexpect to find out how to "expect" the password prompt - autoexpect. This comes with the expect installation.

Thanks, this is helpful, but i'd like to get assisted with regexp composing rather then get solution for particular case from autoexpect.

Pls help me with regexp. Autoexpect-generated sample looks pretty weird and is not working for me

expect -exact "sh: /usr/local/bin/stty: not found\r
[r[999;999H[6n"
send -- "[61;157R"
[r[999;999H[6n"
send -- "[61;157R"
-n Password: \r
