<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
|
|
|
|
This program replays a typescript, using timing information to ensure that
|
|
output happens in the same rhythm as it originally appeared when the script
|
|
was recorded.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
The replay simply displays the information again; the programs
|
|
that were run when the typescript was being recorded are not run again.
|
|
Since the same information is simply being displayed,
|
|
<B>scriptreplay</B>
|
|
|
|
is only guaranteed to work properly if run on the same type of
|
|
terminal the typescript was recorded on. Otherwise, any escape characters
|
|
in the typescript may be interpreted differently by the terminal to
|
|
which
|
|
<B>scriptreplay</B>
|
|
|
|
is sending its output.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
The timing information is what
|
|
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?1+script">script</A></B>(1)
|
|
|
|
outputs to standard error if it is
|
|
run with the
|
|
<B>-t</B>
|
|
|
|
parameter.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
By default, the typescript to display is assumed to be named
|
|
<B>typescript</B>,
|
|
|
|
but other filenames may be specified, as the second parameter or with option
|
|
<B>-s</B>.
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
If the third parameter is specified, it is used as a speed-up multiplier.
|
|
For example, a speed-up of 2 makes
|
|
<B>scriptreplay</B>
|
|
|
|
go twice as fast, and a speed-up of 0.1 makes it go ten times slower
|
|
than the original session.

<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
|
|
|
|
The first three options will override old-style arguments.
|
|
<DL COMPACT>
|
|
<DT id="1"><B>-t</B>,<B> --timing </B><I>file</I>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
File containing <B>script</B>'s timing output.
|
|
<DT id="2"><B>-s</B>,<B> --typescript </B><I>file</I>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
File containing <B>script</B>'s terminal output.
|
|
<DT id="3"><B>-d</B>,<B> --divisor </B><I>number</I>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Speed up the replay displaying this
|
|
<I>number</I>
|
|
|
|
of times. The argument is a floating point number. It's called divisor
|
|
because it divides the timings by this factor.
|
|
<DT id="4"><B>-m</B>,<B> --maxdelay </B><I>number</I>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Set the maximum delay between transcript updates to
|
|
<I>number</I>
|
|
|
|
of seconds. The argument is a floating point number. This can be used to
|
|
avoid long pauses in the transcript replay.
|
|
<DT id="5"><B>-V</B>,<B> --version</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Display version information and exit.
|
|
<DT id="6"><B>-h</B>,<B> --help</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Display help text and exit.
