Description

It would be nice if saving the backlog or terminal to a file were possible.

gsemet commented 10 years ago

I take it

gsemet commented 10 years ago

Should not be that difficult: API https://developer.gnome.org/vte/unstable/VteTerminal.html#vte-terminal-write-contents

TODO:

display a little panel to allow the user to enter the filename/path (either with tab completion, either with a button allowing to select a save path)

pypingou commented 10 years ago

Isn't that something that's normally part of the shell itself? zsh has ~/.zshhistory

I am not sure I would want to have yet another (non-standard) location where your command are saved (ei: yet another place to go clean up once you entered a password in clear in a command)

gsemet commented 10 years ago

no, this is not mandatory. It is done on purpose, when the user want to save the current content of the terminal.

Has anyone found a way to automatically log files with timestamps in the name with a python script instead of right click and save as?
