NAME
ttyrec - a tty recorder
SYNOPSIS
ttyrec [-a] [-u] [-e command] [file]
DESCRIPTION
Ttyrec is a tty recorder. It is a derivative of script(1) command for
recording timing information with microsecond accuracy as well. It can
record emacs -nw, vi, lynx, or any programs running on tty.
Ttyrec invokes a shell and records the session until the shell exits.
Recorded data can be played back with ttyplay(1). If the argument file
is given, the session will be recorded in that file. Otherwise,
ttyrecord is used as default.
OPTIONS
-a Append the output to file or ttyrecord, rather than overwriting
it.
-u With this option, ttyrec automatically calls uudecode(1) and
saves its output when uuencoded data appear on the session. It
allow you to transfer files from remote host. You can call
ttyrec with this option, login to the remote host and invoke
uuencode(1) on it for the file you want to transfer.
-e command
Invoke command when ttyrec starts.
ENVIRONMENT
SHELL If the variable SHELL exists, the shell forked by ttyrec will be
that shell. If it’s not set, the Bourne shell is assumed.
(Most shells set this variable automatically).
