Why doesn't somebody with a 4.1BSD system post script.c? (It's
a public domain program - I wrote it years ago, but didn't keep
a copy.)
The 4.2BSD script program uses ptys instead of pipes - this is
a big improvement because programs don't stop buffering, and
ioctls work (so you can script a vi session). Alas, this means
it won't port back to a USG or V7 or 4.1BSD system. This version
of script produces an exact typescript - this is great for debugging
obscure programs, but it also puts ^M at the end of every line,
and saves the ^H ^H echos when you make a typo in cooked mode.
