these are great ideas. (redirect the output to a file.) or use 'script' to record your interaction in a subshell. or, if you have gpm (apt-get install gpm) for mousing around on the console, select with the left button, and then right-click to paste. usually, tmtowtdi. for screen-snapshot, i canna help you there. -- self-reference, n: see self-reference.
