This might only apply to Debian. The "-t" option outputs timing data to
standard error. You would do something like:

script -t 2> my_timing_file

and to play it back:

replay my_timing_file

You can specify a specific script file otherwise it uses the default
"typescript".

I tried that and strings and a few other things. Cat spews out gibberish
as does less. The gibberish isn't interpretted.
