  Okay.  I'm not totally sure what happened.  I think it was
a buffering problem.  I think I was buffering the output, and
it wasn't getting sent.  I tripped across fixing it, and
now have it working using select, sysread, and syswrite.

  Someday, I may get back to trying to use Expect to do it
in what is likely a more "right way," but.

  Thanks for the pointer that it could be done!
