Hi
can you elaborate more on: "from the beginning on"

You can capture the terminal output of commands to a text file.

 ls > SomeDir.txt

Data

and is there a way to put that script command into linux' autoexec.bat and to create a logfile for every beginning terminal session named 'termlog + %date%' ?

Linux doesn't have an autoexec.bat - instead you need to use your shells' config file. If you are using bash see...

Maybe we take a step back here: what are you actually trying to achieve?
Don't say what you think the solution would be. What task do you need to solve?

as a newbie to linux it's just better to later be able to have a look into what you have done, because it's not possible to remember all these commands from begin on, and sometimes they are hard to find again later.

it also has an positive effect of remembering these commands

Try the up and down arrows from the console to recall previous commands in your history.
You can also use a Ctrl-R followed by a search string to search your history
