I think what you're asking is "How do I save a copy of my terminal output when I'm not logged on via xterm (or some equivalent program)?" Is that what you are asking? If that is what you want to do, the "script" command works well for this purpose. For example, # script install.log Script started, output file is install.log # aptitude update ... # aptitude full-upgrade ... # exit Script done, output file is install.log -- .''`.
