Hi,
when using script with a command sometimes script fails to capture the
first chars. This came up when i replaced my "telnet" and "ssh" commands
with script extended functions like this:
function telnet { script -c "telnet $*" ~/log/telnet.`date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S`.$$; }
function ssh { script -c "ssh $*" ~/log/ssh.`date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S`.$$; }
Here is some example - telnet on a non existant host quickly produces a
unable to connect to remote host which sometimes gets lost:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ script -c 'telnet localhost 3223'
Script started, file is typescript
Script done, file is typescript
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ script -c 'sleep 1; telnet localhost 3223'
Script started, file is typescript
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
Script done, file is typescript
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ script -c 'telnet localhost 3223'
