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.
