I would like to log everything printed to my console in real time. What I mean by this is that I need to be able to view the log file while the logger is running.



To my understanding, script output.txt cannot do this, because I cannot more the file until I exit. So what can I do?

          The script manpage lists this option:




          --flush:
          Flush output after each write. This is nice for
          telecooperation: one person does mkfifo foo; script -f foo,
          and another can supervise real-time what is being done using cat foo.




          It sounds sufficient for what you want to achieve.
