NAME

     script - make record of a terminal session


SYNOPSIS

     script [-a] [filename]


DESCRIPTION

     script makes a record of everything printed on your  screen.
     The record is written to filename. If no file name is given,
     the record is saved in the file typescript.

     The  script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according
     to  the  value  of   $SHELL,  and records the text from this
     session. The script ends when the forked shell exits or when
     CTRL-D is typed.


OPTIONS

     -a    Append the session record  to  filename,  rather  than
           overwrite it.


NOTES

     script places everything  that  appears  on  the  screen  in
     filename, including prompts.
