`script` and `scriptreplay` are part of the `bsdutils` package in Debian and
|
|
|
|
|
Ubuntu, `util-linux-ng` in Fedora and `util-linux` in SUSE. They allow to
|
|
|
|
|
capture a terminal or script output and replay it, respectively.

This page uses the vt100 emulator by Frank Bi and adds code of my own to read
|
|
|
|
|
typescript and timing files to make it possible to replay captured scripts a
|
|
|
|
|
web browser.

|
By adding an upload facility to this it would be possible to have a youtube or
|
|
|
|
|
pastebin for terminal sessions. Due to laziness this remains a proof of concept
|
|
|
|
|
for now though.

- This javascript terminal window is 80x24 characters, so it might be
|
|
|
|
|
best to adjust your terminal window to that size as well using the
|
|
|
|
|
following to check:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ watch "tput cols; tput lines"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Start recording:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ SHELL=/bin/sh TERM=vt100 script -t typescript 2> timingfile
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Do your stuff and when done exit script with `exit`, `logout` or
|
|
|
|
|
ctrl-d.
|
|
|
|
|
- To test how your recorded session looks like, use:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ scriptreplay timingfile typescript
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Enter `timingfile` and `typescript` into form above and hit the play
|
|
|
|
|
button.
