Session Manager keeps several records of the different things that happen during your terminal session - all the commands, instructions, and input you enter and all the output from commands and messages that the system issues. These records are streams.
A stream is similar to a long sheet of paper that fills up with information as your terminal session progresses. Session Manager places each line of information entering a stream in the next available line starting at the top.
