You could use a shell with command history such as bash and pipe every command you use to tee -a with into the same file.

Code:
#bash
# pwd | tee -a sessionfile
# pkgadd -d . SUNWless | tee -a sessionfile
# /etc/init.d/nfs.server start | tee -a sessionfile
# cp $HOME/.bash_history sessionfile.cmds
