chk this out
hi u can write a deamon proc in C to read all the command in the terminal.

use the "system" system call in the c program and redirect all the commands in the history to a file to analyse.writing a deamon allows u to do this in background.

system("history>test.$$);

include this in the code.

mail me if u have any concerns
