istanbul from sid can create screencasts in ogg theora format, however for text only activities it would be great to have a text only recording as well. fortunately it seems possible with the script and scriptreplay commands from the bsdutils package. {{{ mkdir /tmp/myscreencast cd /tmp/myscreencast script -t 2>timingfile # now do some hacking, afterwards there will be a typescript and a # timingfile both are needed. # then, watch it again ;) scriptreplay timingfile }}} {{{ telnet rerun.lefant.net 2323 }}} {{{ mkfifo /tmp/fifo nc rerun.lefant.net 2323 < /tmp/fifo script -f /tmp/fifo }}} und hier wird dann archiviert?: http://ttyshare.com/ while the ttyrec package itself is buggy and seems unmaintained, the upstream homepage has some nice docs on an inetd server for live usage. http://0xcc.net/ttyrec/index.html.en this may also be of use: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Snoop_terminal_session
