Hi all

I have been using screen to get multiple screens but I read that it can be used to get a text dump of a session. But I havent found detailed instructions for that or a tutorial. Reading the man pages sugggests that somehow I attach to an other process that would dump the output but its not clear. The sort of thing that I want to do is say record an 'apt-get upgrade' session where I might have had to enter 'yes' to replace a config file or something and thus I get a text file of my choices and what was changed.

PS. Googling show slots of things about screen printing but not the sort I want :-)

Mike
