Hi

I want to absolutely be sure of never losing any data I enter into a
terminal.
A security feature like hardcaopy log <command> H
would be perfect but say I want to curtail the size of this file to have
at any time only the last n kB, what would be a good (elegant) way to do
this?
Not sure logrotate is really attractive.



Nothing a shell script can't handle.

#!/bin/sh
SL=screenlog-`date +%m-%d-%y-%H:%M`
if [ -f $1 ] ; then
 mv $1 $SL
else
 echo "Specify screen log file to archive..."
fi
