For example, expect(1) is described in the 1989 Don Libes book "Life with UNIX". Libes is the author of Expect. A title such as "Life with Linux" would probably have made little sense at the time.
Correction: I went back and looked at the book and it does not mention expect. According to Wikipedia expect was first released the following year, in 1990. Apologies for the inadvertence.
Nevethless I think it is safe to say that expect was not written using or for Linux as Linux was not released until 1991.
