Well, the problem is how can you tell a command being executed from a script 
calling 
various programs? Also how can you tell that a file being sourced is a command? 
(I 
think in that case a file is opened for read and the shell executes it.) I 
think the 
bottom line is its pretty hard to tell.

So, what we have is key stroke logging. This gets more than commands, but 
wouldn't you 
want to log what people do if its that important? If someone knew that only 
commands 
are being logged, they could start python and just start typing commands which 
won't 
be otherwise logged. There is a man page for this, pam_tty_audit.
