RE: Shell Logging Program

Hi MK

Have you checked out the "script" command? It basically records whatever
command the user executes and also the output to a file.

Subject: Shell Logging Program


Hello,

        I was hoping that someone could help me out. I would be much 
obliged.
        I need a shell program that will record what a user enters,
write 
it to a file (possibly in the user's home directory), a time stamp, and,

say, the first 100 characters of text that the command issued produced.
No 
control charachters should appear in the file. I've concluded that a 
really long .history isn't good enough.
        I've been trying to write one using ptys but since I'm not so 
great of a programmer, I'm hoping someone out there has already written 
such a thing.

Cordially,
MK
