strange characters like ESC^H^H generated in typescript file by /usr/bin/script command
by no-windose from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4X6TJ)
When using the /usr/bin/script linux command, the typescript file generated displays a lot of strange characters like ESC^H^H or ^M etc when listed with the command /usr/bin/less. When viewing this file through a text editor with GUI, some even stranger characters appear. Oddly, the file is correctly displayed with the commands /bin/more and /bin/cat.
May I ask how to display the file without these characters when using less and/or a text editor?
