On Unix, you can execute "script <filename>" on the command prompt. This
will create a new session in which you execute the program as many times.
After you are done press ^D to come out of session. Everything of that
session will be saved in the file <filename>.

On Windows, you can probably build something like "script" in python. BTW,
does your executable takes any user inputs ?
