+.Sh NAME
+.Nm script
+.Nd make typescript of terminal session
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm
+.Op Fl adefpqr
+.Op Fl c Ar command
+.Op Ar file
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Nm
+makes a typescript of everything printed on your terminal.
+It is useful for students who need a hardcopy record of an interactive
+session as proof of an assignment, as the typescript file
+can be printed out later with
+.Xr lpr 1 .
+.Pp
+If the argument
+.Ar file
+is given,
+.Nm
+saves all dialogue in
+.Ar file .
+If no file name is given, the typescript is saved in the file
+.Pa typescript .
+.Pp
+Option:
+.Bl -tag -width Ds
+.It Fl a
+Append the output to
+.Ar file
+or
+.Pa typescript ,
+retaining the prior contents.
+.It Fl c Ar command
+Run the named
+.Ar command
+instead of the shell.
+Useful for capturing the output of a program that behaves differently when
+associated with a tty.
+.It Fl d
+When playing back a session with the
+.Fl p
+flag, don't sleep between records when playing back a timestamped session.
+.It Fl e
+Exit with the shell-style exit status of the shell or
+.Ar command ,
+instead of always exiting successfully.
+.It Fl f
+Flush output after each write.
+This is useful for watching the script output in real time.
+.It Fl p
+Play back a session recorded with the
+.Fl r
+flag in real time.
+.It Fl q
+Be quiet, and don't output started and ended lines.
+.It Fl r
+Record a session with input, output, and timestamping.
+.El
+.Pp
+The script ends when the forked shell exits (a
+.Em control-D
+to exit
+the Bourne shell
+.Pf ( Xr sh 1 ) ,
+and
+.Em exit ,
+.Em logout
+or
+.Em control-d
+(if
+.Em ignoreeof
+is not set) for the
+C-shell,
+.Xr csh 1 ) .
+.Pp
+Certain interactive commands, such as
+.Xr vi 1 ,
+create garbage in the typescript file.
+.Nm
+works best with commands that do not manipulate the
+screen, the results are meant to emulate a hardcopy
+terminal.
+.Sh ENVIRONMENT
+The following environment variable is used by
+.Nm :
+.Bl -tag -width SHELL
+.It Ev SHELL
+If the variable
+.Ev SHELL
+exists, the shell forked by
+.Nm
+will be that shell.
+If
+.Ev SHELL
+is not set, the Bourne shell
+is assumed.
+(Most shells set this variable automatically).
+.El
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr csh 1
+(for the
+.Em history
+mechanism).
+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm
+command appeared in
+.Bx 3.0 .
+.Sh BUGS
+.Nm
+places
+.Sy everything
+in the log file, including linefeeds and backspaces.
+This is not what the naive user expects.
