Automaticaly save input of gtkterm to txt file

#1 Post by alicialib »

Dear all,

I would like to save the input of gtkterm ( what is displayed from its window) to a file, and this autmatically. Because from GTKterm you can save raw file by clicking "save every to raw file manually". As it's say on the readme file, you can use "gtkterm -f filename.txt", but i tried and none file is created on the current directory. Any help will be wonderfull.

thank you very much.

Regards.

Maybe try querying the current maintainer, Zach Davis, whose email is available at this website.

I can't remember ever using gtkterm, but most terminals can do this:


If you are trying to save a list of input values to use, then I'm not sure how to do that other than a script to run that program....

If you are trying to route the output from what you run to a file so you can parse it or review it. Then you can do that normally by doing this:

Code: Select all

# ./myProgram > mySaveFile.txt
That will re-route the stdout to the save file...

hope this helps, if not, im sorry i couldn't help
