Another option I'm very fond of, is the scrollback history of screen(1). I regularly run screen on consoles, and have set the scrollback lines to 2000 in my .screenrc file with: defscrollback 2000 This has the interesting side-effect that I can view the scrollback buffer even after I detach the screen session and come back later, or when I detach the screen session from a console and attach it to an xterm that I just fired up under X11. Just my $0.02, as the saying goes :) - Giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
