Display device prompt

Hello,

Is there a way to display the device prompt? This issue is related to issues #111 and #131.

Simply, I’d like to have this output:

<DEVICE>mmi-mode enable
Warning: Entered machine-to-machine mode. All the commands will be executed without being confirmed. Exercise caution when using this command. 
<DEVICE>system-view
[DEVICE]#
[DEVICE]interface Ethernet 0/0/1
[DEVICE-Ethernet0/0/1] clear configuration this
Warning[0x40530090]: All configurations of the interface will be cleared, and its state will be shutdown. Continue? [Y/N] :
Running...
Info[0x40530093]: Total 6 command(s) executed, 6 successful, 0 failed.

Instead of:

mmi-mode enable
Warning: Entered machine-to-machine mode. All the commands will be executed without being confirmed. Exercise caution when using this command. 
system-view
#
interface Ethernet 0/0/1
 clear configuration this
Warning[0x40530090]: All configurations of the interface will be cleared, and its state will be shutdown. Continue? [Y/N] :
Running...
Info[0x40530093]: Total 6 command(s) executed, 6 successful, 0 failed.

Yes, there are reasons I need this data:

• It helps to debug.
• Having the prompt is more convenient and readable.

Why not provide this feature as an option (e.g., a parameter).

Thanks for your work, Exscript is a nice toolbox.

Here is what I tried:

#!/opt/python3.6/bin/python3.6
from Exscript.util.interact import read_login
from Exscript.protocols import SSH2
import sys # >>>>>>>>>> ADDED THIS <<<<<<<<<<

# Login
account = read_login()
conn = SSH2(stdout=sys.stdout) # >>>>>>>>>> ADDED THIS <<<<<<<<<<
conn.connect('DEVICE')
conn.login(account)

# Commands
conn.execute('display current-configuration interface ethernet 0/0/2')

# Logout
conn.send('exit\r')
conn.close()

Now I got the prompt:

$ ./simple.py 
Please enter your user name [champi]: 
Please enter your password: 
<DEVICE>display current-configuration interface ethernet 0/0/2
#
interface Ethernet0/0/2
 description Uplink
 shutdown
#
return

Is this the recommended way to go? Thanks!
