I don't know cmuExport, but I would hope/expect it to has a command line
switch for 'OverWrite' but if not, take a look at the 'expect' utility
program:
"Expect is a program that "talks" to other interactive programs accord-
ing to a script. Following the script, Expect knows what can be
expected from a program and what the correct response should be. An
interpreted language provides branching and high-level control struc-
tures to direct the dialogue. In addition, the user can take control
and interact directly when desired, afterward returning control to
the script."
