NAME

tdrecord - record input and output of a terminal program

SYNOPSIS

tdrecord [OPTIONS]... CLIENT [CLIENT OPTIONS]...

DESCRIPTION

tdrecord records the input and output of client. The recording can later be replayed using tdreplay(1) to compare behaviour of different versions of client. Without options, tdrecord will create the recording in the file tdrecord-year-month-day@hour:minute:second.

OPTIONS

tdrecord accepts the following options:

-h, --help: Display a short help message.
-V, --version: Print version and copyright information.
-d dir, --directory=dir: Create the recording in directory dir. This option can not be used together with the -o/--output option.
-e vars, --environment=vars: Save the environment variables indicated by the comma-separated list vars to the recording. These will be set on replay.
-o file, --output=file: Save the output in file. This option can not be used together with the -d/--directory option.
-X, --allow-x11: Don't clear the DISPLAY environment variable, to allow communication with X11.

To stop tdrecord from interpreting file names that start with a dash as options, one can specify a double dash (--) after which tdrecord will interpret any following arguments as the client and its options.
