I would like a tool that captures the UNIX session.  For instance,

$ls file[1-3]
file1	file2
file3: not found

This tool would capture all input and output (including stderr) into
to one file, and be very useful for generating user documentation.

It would also be nice if the tool could highlight either stdin
or stdout+stderr, at the user's choice.   The highlighting could
be done by backspacing and over- strikes.  That is, in some manuals,
they say "you type the stuff which is bold/underlined, and the system
prints the rest".
