NAME

script − make typescript of a terminal session

USAGE

script [ −a ] [ file ]

DESCRIPTION

The script command makes a typescript of everything printed on a terminal display (or a pad on a node). It is most useful when you need a hard-copy record similar to the one provided by the DM command pn, but you are logged in on a dumb terminal.  If no file is specified, the typescript is saved in the file typescript in your current directory.  The script ends when the forked Shell exits. 

The script command uses the Shell specified in the SHELL environment variable. If SHELL is not set, script uses /bin/sh by default. 

OPTIONS

−a Append to file. If file isn’t specified, append to filename typescript in current directory. 

file Write (or append) to file instead of filename typescript in current directory. 

FILES

./typescript default script
