If you have >long commands for `script'ing, use a shell script to avoid typos. Scripting itself is not a problem :-) I use script mainly for inserting "logs" of my shell sessions to mails.

If not, I think, I'll patch script some way ... --=20 Vlad Skvortsov, vss@ulstu.ru To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
