scriptlive - re-run session typescripts, using timing information

Authors

       Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>

Availability

       The scriptlive command is part of the util-linux package which can be downloaded from Linux Kernel
       Archive <https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/>.

util-linux 2.40.2                                  2024-01-31                                      SCRIPTLIVE(1)

Description

       This program re-runs a typescript, using stdin typescript and timing information to ensure that input
       happens in the same rhythm as it originally appeared when the script was recorded.

       The sessionisexecuted in a newly created pseudoterminal with the user’s $SHELL (or defaults to
       /bin/bash).

       Becareful! Do not forget that the typescript may contains arbitrary commands. It is recommended to use
       "scriptreplay--streamin--log-intypescript" (or with --log-io instead of --log-in) to verify the
       typescript before it is executed by scriptlive.

       The timing information is what script(1) outputs to file specified by --log-timing. The typescript has to
       contain stdin information and it is what script1 outputs to file specified by --log-in or --log-io.

Examples

           % script --log-timing file.tm --log-in script.in
           Script started, file is script.out
           % date
           <etc, etc>
           % exit
           Script done, file is script.out
           % scriptlive --log-timing file.tm --log-in script.in

Name

       scriptlive - re-run session typescripts, using timing information

Options

-I, --log-infile
           File containing script's terminal input.

       -B, --log-iofile
           File containing script's terminal output and input.

       -t, --timingfile
           File containing script's timing output. This option overrides old-style arguments.

       -T, --log-timingfile
           Aliased to -t, maintained for compatibility with script(1) command-line options.

       -d, --divisornumber
           Speed up the replay displaying this number of times. The argument is a floating-point number. It’s
           called divisor because it divides the timings by this factor. This option overrides old-style
           arguments.

       -m, --maxdelaynumber
           Set the maximum delay between updates to number of seconds. The argument is a floating-point number.
           This can be used to avoid long pauses in the typescript replay.

       -h, --help
           Display help text and exit.

       -V, --version
           Print version and exit.
