						We want to create a script that will do the following:
show port 5:2,6:1 info
Wait for user to answer if the ports shown are the correct ports to be disabled
If yes execute "disable port 5:2,6:1", then execute "save config"
If no abort
I haven't been able to find a tcl example that incorporates waiting for user input with a if/then.

						Hi Stephen,
I think you may be looking for the Built-In Function: $READ(prompt)
#Example:
set var CLI.OUT " "
show port 5:2, 6:1 information
show var CLI.OUT
set var answer $READ(Are these the correct ports to be disabled?)
#logic based on input
