Record your shell.
Start a recording and work as usual; type exit when you’re done. Terminal output and timing are saved in a .tbt file, rather than a screen video. Keep a debugging trail or document a workflow as you go.
termbacktime recordRecord, replay, and share terminal sessions.
TermBackTime combines a command-line recorder with a browser player. Capture your shell’s output, colors, timing, and resizes, then revisit a session or let someone else follow along. Recordings stay on your computer until you choose to share them.

A bug report, a teammate’s first run, or a tour of a terminal tool: give people the steps and the results in one replayable session. These examples were captured in a real shell with TermBackTime.

Replay at your pace.
Replay in your terminal or open the file in your browser. The player reconstructs the session so you can seek, change speed, and loop a tricky step. Export a transcript, an offline player, or a short GIF or WebM for your documentation.
