Recording a terminal session

The command script <filename> starts a new session and records all characters input or output to the terminal in the file <filename>. This is useful for submitting assignments! To stop recording type Ctrl-d or exit. An example session is shown below.

[amit@onyx]: script log
Script started, file is log
[amit@onyx]: date

[amit@onyx]: exit

Script started, file is log
[amit@onyx spmd_hello_1]$ submit amit cs430 1
