Perhaps the script command would be closer to what you are looking for. Or you can run the shell with tee, something like

Code:
sh -ix <commands.txt 2>&1 | tee -a /path/to/output.txt
You'd put your canned commands in commands.txt (mainly because typing anything into a shell which is running with redirection is not exactly user-friendly).
