looking at alogin, there is already code there to send 'y'.  for the purposes
of automation, this is likely the right choice.  although, it looks like the
prompt has changed in your new version and the match needs to be updated as
follows:

please lmk if that works.

Since this upgrade, when running the /c/dump command listed in arancid to print out the current config while having some type of SSL certificate installed on the device, the device asks you if you want to Display the Private Keys and expects the user to reply with a ‘y’ or ‘n’ like so:

Is there some way to fix this in the list of commands in alogin/arancid such that the script would catch the “Display private keys? [y/n]:” and then send a ‘n’? I am not too sure which file I would add this too to fix this.
