I don't really know what you mean by "keylogger" but I will extrapolate to the various possibilities offered by a Unix-like operating system is capable to reach the nirvana of "keystroke logging". I will also assume that you don't want to hide your activities but this was already understood ;-) - script There is the old and venerable Unix command called "script" that permits to record a whole interactive session in a text file. Very handy when you have to record an activity session for a course or making documentation. You just need to run "script myfile" and this will save all shell interaction into a file called "myfile". Of course, you are free to add some scripting around it. - GNU Screen A second option is to use the wonderful GNU Screen (but I'm sure that you already know that very nice GNU package). Screen is capable to do extensive logging of any session happening in a screen session. "screen -L" is going to log the activities in screenlog.0 but feel free to use the screenrc config file to configure it. Lookup the man page of screen and search the following keywords : "deflog / logfile and %n" - Sebek You have also more powerful tool like Sebek (http://www.honeynet.org/tools/sebek/) often used in honeypot to capture activities of an attacker. Of course, this is just an overview of the capacity. You have also the excellent socat (http://www.dest-unreach.org/socat/) that can be used to capture interaction on any /dev/ttyp. You can also patch the GNU readline library, use ttyrec, use the THC vlogger... But don't forget that such power come with responsibilities.
