Record a Terminal Session

Record a terminal command, then press 'Control + d' to exit.

1script --timing=time.log stat.txt
2ls -a
3ls -al
4stat ~/.bashrc
5^D

Replay the session:

1scriptreplay --timing=time.log stat.txt

Try a bare command, without any timing:

1script -c 'top | lolcat' loltop
2nl loltop

Has your terminal messed up? Is the cursor hiding? Reset it!

1reset

If you can't see any keys, keep typing anyway: have faith in your terminal.

This loltop file will not play properly as it has no timings file. But you can cheat the system and use your other timings file:

1scriptreplay --timing=time.log loltop

This will mostly not work well, but it shows how the timing file works:

 10.033401 23
 20.044513 8
 30.000016 219
 41.349324 114
 50.179106 1
 60.088790 1
 70.072821 1
 80.358337 2
 90.000254 9
100.004720 52
110.000084 21
120.155462 671

I think it works like this?
