6 scriptreplay - play back typescripts, using timing information

9 ssccrriippttrreeppllaayy timingfile [typescript [divisor]]
10
12 This program replays a typescript, using timing information to ensure
13 that output happens at the same speed as it originally appeared when
14 the script was recorded.
15
16 The replay simply displays the information again; the programs that
17 were run when the typescript was being recorded are not run again.
18 Since the same information is simply being displayed, ssccrriippttrreeppllaayy is
19 only guaranteed to work properly if run on the same type of terminal
20 the typescript was recorded on. Otherwise, any escape characters in
21 the typescript may be interpreted differently by the terminal to which
22 ssccrriippttrreeppllaayy is sending its output.
23
24 The timings information is what ssccrriipptt(1) outputs to standard error if
25 it is run with the --tt parameter.
26
27 By default, the typescript to display is assumed to be named "type‐
28 script", but other filenames may be specified, as the second parameter.
29
30 If the third parameter is specified, it is used as a speed-up multi‐
31 plier. For example, a speed-up of 2 makes ssccrriippttrreeppllaayy go twice as fast
32 and a speed-up of 0.1 makes it go ten times slower than the original
33 session.
