asciinema: record commands in terminal

By | June 1, 2017

RE: asciinema.org  (Linux/MacOS)

It may be nice to share/show commands being typed on a Text Terminal and embed this simple “movie” within blog or HTML page.

It seems that the recording gets uploaded to their web site… Since it’s all text-based the file should be rather small and the clarity of replay very good compared to video-based methods. Also, since it’s all text-based it is possible to copy/paste from within the replay…

Implementation might be a bit more tricky but perhaps worth the effort ?

Web site is at: https://asciinema.org/

Simple recording

Record right where you work – in a terminal.

To start just run asciinema rec,

to finish hit Ctrl-D or type exit.
