terminal io 2

[nkm]

Hi

Can anyone give me some sample code to read terminal io.
Actually what I want to do is to have a process in the background which would record all user pressed keys.

Includes all commands executed, and text typed if an editor is opened.

thanks...

Hi,
Why not start up the UNIX program

script

script starts up a SHELL and LOGS everything typed in that shell.


Unless of course you need this on Windows. Then please feel free to ignore this post.

You want expect.

Here is a script that does what you want:

#!/usr/bin/expect

log_user 0
exp_internal 0
set timeout -1
log_file [file join /tmp/ [exec date +%a-%T-%V]]

   spawn /bin/sh
   set id $spawn_id
   interact
