$> vim | tee vimshow

Then in a different xterm :

$> tail -s.1 -f vimshow

And watch yourself editing files and moving around.

But the best part comes after you have closed vim :

:qa!

$> cat vimshow

Have fun !

-ap

(Depending on your system this might not work as intended. )

Interesting!

try

%> cat -v vimshow

for some more fun.

How did you come across this ?

Regards.

I don't remember, I think I mistyped a 'tee' command.
