does Expect/TCL script know to skip a line if it does not see anything that matches?

[qmqmqm]

Hi

I have searched around on http://wiki.tcl.tk and other places online, but I did not seem to have found the answer...
My questions is: does Expect script know to skip a line if it does not see anything that matches it, but sees something that matches the next line?
For example:
Suppose I have the following Expect script:

expect "Hi1" {send_user "received 1"}
expect "Hi2" {send_user "received 2"}

If the input received is "Hi2" without having "Hi1" before it, does the script know to skip the first line of code?

If not, is there a way to make the script smart enought to do this?

Thanks a lot.

I think I can achieve this by using a structure like this... ...

expect {
"1" {
return ;# return from foo
}
"2" {
break ;# break out of while
}
"3" {
if {0==[func]} {
exit ;# exit program
} else {
continue ;# restart while
}
}
}

But just out of curiosity, is Expect smart enough to skip a line if the input matches the next line?

Thanks,

Tom
