This should work. It doesn't check to see if asterisk is running and
I haven't done any erro checking.

#!/usr/bin/expect

proc sleep {timeout} {
     expect
}
set send_slow	{ 1 .05 }	;# How fast to exp_send the characters

#log_user 1			;# Keeps the user from seeing the
				;# spawned the echo back.
if [catch "spawn asterisk -r" reason ] {
   exit 1
}

set id $spawn_id

expect "CLI>" { }			 ;# wait for a DOS prompt
exp_send -s -i $id "restart now\r"	 ;# Write out the table
sleep 2
exit 0

# End of code
