[qmtest] Hi, I am new and I have a question

[John Schmitt]

I assume that by 'DOS window' you mean 'console application'.  I can't
tell for sure from your message, but it sounds like you have an
interactive application that needs testing.  In that case you might want
to make use of pexpect: http://pexpect.sourceforge.net/.  The manual for
it is here: http://pexpect.sourceforge.net/doc/pexpect.html.  I think
Eric Raymond is nudging the Python development team to include it in the
standard library:

Good luck.
