Abstract

Display terminals, although faster than typewriter devices, do not implicitly create records of the user's interactive sessions. Based on the premise that a display terminal session facility that also has the record-keeping functions of typewriter terminals would increase productivity, a research project was undertaken that has resulted in the session manager discussed. Experience with the system is summarized.
