'screen' is a full terminal window manager. This
utility makes a typescript of terminal sessions.
I do not know if screen does the same thing as part of
its larger core of functionality, but this is a
well-known albeit smaller piece of software.
I don't know how long it has been available on other
UNIX systems, but it has been available on Solaris for
as long as I can rememeber, and has been ported to all
flavors of Linux I've tried.
