Aug 26, 2010

Software :: Text Based Screen Cast - Ability To Copy And Paste Text From Screen Cast?

Jan 3, 2011

I'm looking for software which will allow me to record a screen-cast of a terminal based application, recording keystrokes, timing of keystrokes, and audio. I see a couple of advantages to this approach over video capture: Display independence: the viewer can display text in any resolution/style they want, not limited to the resolution of the recorded video. Ability to copy and paste text from the screencast.

For example, I'd like to (case insensitively) search all subdirectories for files called "cover.jpg", "cover.gif", or "cover.png" and create a copy of these called "thumb.xxx", in the same subdirectory the original is found, with the same extension as the original.
