Improved util-linux script command

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello util-linux-ng list,

I've been using "script" in the course of my work to handle those "what 
*exactly* did you do" questions.  Problem is, it's just not at the same 
standard as other Linux tools.  So I fixed it, while keeping compatibility 
with the existing usage and "file formats".

These changes are based on util-linux-2.12r - although it's more of a fork 
than a diff.  Most notable is that you can record and play back with simple 
redirection, like you always wanted to:
	script > foo ; script < foo

I've put up a page with the improved script.c source, a revised man page, 
script.1, and a better explanation of what it's about here:

	http://www.lunch.za.net/software/script/script.c
	http://www.lunch.za.net/software/script/script.1
	
Should I format these as a patch?  Freely forward fanmail, feedback, 
flames ...

&:-)
