-The goal is to develop `change` into a utility that can be dropped in front of any non-suid (function interposition via `LD_PRELOAD` is thankfully not allowed for suid-executables) application and generate a summary that will explain the actual happenings of a terminal session. While this is not very useful for simple, self-explanatory commands such as `mv $this $to_that` it is certainly helpful whenever files are changed by interactive applications that do not provide their own directly visible logging such as text editors. Such an application will in turn be useful for e.g. documenting shell sessions.
