Hey @youjeongsue.

I think what you're looking for is the only_tty filter.

The comments in the config file maybe really aren't the best in this regard (feel free to open a PR with improvements):
https://github.com/a2o/snoopy/blob/master/etc/snoopy.ini.in#L81

In short, configure Snoopy filtering as follows:

filter_chain = only_tty

This should do the trick. Can you report back if it works as expected?

This filter will only work when commands are run with sudo...it won't work when the user runs their normal commands.

sudo ls ---> logged
ls ---> not work

Is there a way to save normal commands as well?

@hatamiarash7, are you using the output = file:/path/to/your/logfile.log option?
