- <li><b>'</b> is the delimiting character for a word or
- phrase of an expect/send line in a <tt>chat</tt> type
- script. The words/phrases normally come in pairs, either can
- be empty. Each line reads input from the connection until it
- sees the string (or perl regular expression) contained in the
- left hand string. If the left hand string is empty then it
- doesn't read or wait for anything. The comparison is done
- ignoring case.
