This is kind of OT, but still relevant to org, I think..<div><br></div><div>I spend most of my day coding, and sometimes doing devops stuff. When I can&#39;t (don&#39;t have the time, or the client just doesn&#39;t want to) automate it with a scm system like Chef, I rely on buildlogs (all of them saved as org files). However, I find buildlogs a pain to build manually, specially when you are int the middle of the task - in the zone - typing, retyping, researching etc, and still have to stop and take notes in a document.</div>
<div><br></div><div>My perfect workflow would be something like: automatically capture everything you wrote in the terminal to a file. Then, based off this file, add the step descriptions and any other additional information. No need to manually copy pieces of data from the terminal to the document, risking forgetting a step in the process.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I was wondering if any of you guys ever thought about this or done anything to automate it? I don&#39;t use the shell from emacs, I use iTerm. One alternative I think is to use GNU Screen and set it up to log the input (I know a colleague of mine did that once). Another one is to setup something from emacs that automatically saves the input data in a temp buffer and then converts it to a org file.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I&#39;ll try one of those tonight, but if any of you guys have insights you&#39;d like to share, it&#39;d be superb :)</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers!</div><div><br></div><div>- Marcelo.</div>
