Re:How to Record Everything You Do in Terminal by dredmorbius on Thursday October 24, 2019 @05:38PM (#21349464)
For more utility, enable (and save) timings using the '-t' or '--timings <file>' option.

You can then replay the session, in realtime, or with some multiplier (slower or faster), using scriptreplay(1). An advantage is that full-screen utilities will be fully captured.

I've used this technique, and serial connections (zmodem, minicom, serial-over-ethernet, many ILOM/IPMI/BMC systems) to record full system installs, starting at BIOS prompts and configuration utilities.

Replaying the session through the phosphor(6x) screensaver can be entertaining.
