C 4 script - make typescript of terminal session script [ -a ] [ file ] Script makes a typescript of everything printed on your terminal. The typescript is written to file , or appended to file if the -a option is given. It can be sent to the line printer later with lpr . If no file name is given, the typescript is saved in the file typescript .

The script ends when the forked shell exits.

This program is useful when using a crt and a hard-copy record of the dialog is desired, as for a student handing in a program that was developed on a crt when hard-copy terminals are in short supply.

Script places everything in the log file. This is not what the naive user expects.
