[geeks] need a utility to log an shell session's commands

[Nadine Miller]

I'm sure one of you guys can come up with something off the top 
of your heads, but for the life of me I can't recall what we used 
to do this at $job-3.

It's basically a process that you start at a shell prompt that 
records all the stuff you do into a log file.  You can then use 
as the basis for writing up documentation, or, possibly as a 
basis for automating it.

I want to say the name of it was 'script' but that's so generic 
that trying to find the right thing via google or freshmeat is 
pretty useless.

I know bash can do something a little like this, but I need a 
tool that will catch the entire session, even across 'su-ing' to 
various users (I have to install a complex piece of software 
tomorrow, and I want to have a record of it).

Thanks--
