Is there a way to log the results of interactive programs?

On vms systems you could spawn a new login session and have that session logged
to a disk file.  This was particularly useful because is let people test 
their programs interactively, while logging the results to a file which
could be easily viewed or printed.

I dont want to have to use PRINT SCREEN to do this, or to open have the printer
do everything as I go along, I'd like this in a file.


Is there a way to do this in OS/2 or MSDOS5?

Thanks
Greg

If anyone knows how to do this under MSDOS, please let me know as well!

You could get SCRIPT11.ZIP from Simtel or one of its mirrors.  Highly
recommended.

In msdos you could either use some printerspooler to write everything on
disk. Or get 4dos, it has it's internal command tee. And it's a _very_
good pgm otherwise too. It saves memory, includes history, on-line help 
and a lot more.

CONCOPY will do this.  You can get it from Simtel-20.
