## NAME
       scriptreplay - play back typescripts, using timing information

## SYNOPSIS
       **scriptreplay** [options] [**-t**] _timingfile_ [_typescript_ [_divisor_]]

## DESCRIPTION
       This program replays a typescript, using timing information to ensure that output happens in
       the same rhythm as it originally appeared when the script was recorded.

       The replay simply displays the information again; the programs that were run when the
       typescript was being recorded are **not** **run** **again**. Since the same information is simply being
       displayed, **scriptreplay** is only guaranteed to work properly if run on the same type of
       terminal the typescript was recorded on. Otherwise, any escape characters in the typescript
       may be interpreted differently by the terminal to which **scriptreplay** is sending its output.

       The timing information is what [**script**(1)](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/man/script/1/markdown) outputs to file specified by **--log-timing**.

       By default, the typescript to display is assumed to be named _typescript_, but other filenames
       may be specified, as the second parameter or with option **--log-out**.

       If the third parameter or **--divisor** is specified, it is used as a speed-up multiplier. For
       example, a speed-up of 2 makes **scriptreplay** go twice as fast, and a speed-up of 0.1 makes it
       go ten times slower than the original session.

## OPTIONS
### -I --log-in
           File containing **script**'s terminal input.

### -O --log-out
           File containing **script**'s terminal output.

### -B --log-io
           File containing **script**'s terminal output and input.

### -t --timing
           File containing **script**'s timing output. This option overrides old-style arguments.

### -T --log-timing
           This is an alias for **-t**, maintained for compatibility with [**script**(1)](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/man/script/1/markdown) command-line
           options.

### -s --typescript
           File containing **script**'s terminal output. Deprecated alias to **--log-out**. This option
           overrides old-style arguments.

### -c --cr-mode
           Specifies how to use the CR (0x0D, carriage return) character from log files. The default
           mode is _auto_, in this case CR is replaced with line break for stdin log, because
           otherwise **scriptreplay** would overwrite the same line. The other modes are _never_ and
           _always_.

### -d --divisor
           Speed up the replay displaying this _number_ of times. The argument is a floating-point
           number. It’s called divisor because it divides the timings by this factor. This option
           overrides old-style arguments.

### -m --maxdelay
           Set the maximum delay between updates to _number_ of seconds. The argument is a
           floating-point number. This can be used to avoid long pauses in the typescript replay.

### --summary
           Display details about the session recorded in the specified timing file and exit. The
           session has to be recorded using _advanced_ format (see [**script**(1)](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/man/script/1/markdown)) option **--logging-format**
           for more details).

### -x --stream
           Forces **scriptreplay** to print only the specified stream. The supported stream types are
           _in_, _out_, _signal_, or _info_. This option is recommended for multi-stream logs (e.g.,
           **--log-io**) in order to print only specified data.

### -V --version
           Display version information and exit.

### -h --help
           Display help text and exit.

## EXAMPLES
           % script --log-timing file.tm --log-out script.out
           Script started, file is script.out
           % ls
           <etc, etc>
           % exit
           Script done, file is script.out
           % scriptreplay --log-timing file.tm --log-out script.out
