The libutempter library provides interface for terminal emulators such as
|
|
screen and xterm to record user sessions to utmp and wtmp files.
|
|
|
|
The utempter is a privileged helper used by libutempter library to manipulate
|
|
utmp and wtmp files.
|
|
|
|
This implementation is based on ideas of RedHat's utempter by Erik Troan
|
|
(version 0.5.2 at the moment of writing).
|
|
|
|
There are two interfaces supported: old and new.
|
|
New API is recommended for new applications, old - for compatibility with
|
|
old software.
