Want to record your shell session on your GNU/Linux machine for future reviewing or sharing?
Well, this video is a tutorial that will show one way of doing this (there are other ways as well).

ttyrec – tty recorder
From the MAN file:
DESCRIPTION
Ttyrec is a tty recorder. It is a derivative of script(1) command for recording timing information with microsecond accuracy as well. It can record emacs -nw, vi, lynx, or any programs running on tty.

Ttyrec invokes a shell and records the session until the shell exits. Recorded data can be played back with ttyplay(1). If the argument file is given, the session will be recorded in that file. Otherwise, ttyrecord is used as default.

This Video shows you how to use a fun little program call sl (steam locomotive) which displays an animation of a train in your Linux Shell Terminal.

This is a tutorial video on a Linux Shell command called Multitail.
Similar to the command ‘tail’ Multitail shows the end of a file, but it also allows you to view the end (the tail) of multiple files at once.

From the MAN file:
DESCRIPTION
The program MultiTail lets you view one or multiple files like the original tail program. The difference is that it creates multiple windows on your console (with ncurses). It can also monitor wildcards: if another file matching the wildcard has a more recent modification date, it will automatically switch to that file. That way you can, for example, monitor a complete directory of files. Merging of 2 or even more logfiles is possible. It can also use colors while displaying the logfiles (through regular expressions), for faster recognition of what is important and what not. It can also filter lines (again with regular expressions). It has interactive menus for editing given regular expressions and deleting and
adding windows. One can also have windows with the output of shell scripts and other software. When viewing the output of external software, Mul‐
tiTail can mimic the functionality of tools like ‘watch’ and such. When new mail arrives for the current user, the statuslines will become green.
To reset this “mail has arrived”-state, press ‘ ‘ (a space). For help at any time, press F1.

Using Kdenlive, a Free and Open Source Video Editor, this video will teach you how to create an old silent film type effect for your videos using some built in effect and a few free overlays. It’s quick and easy and we also use GIMP a little.
