Looks cool, but produce GIFs? Asciinema is text based IIRC.

The name is the downside of Asciinema IMO. Can’t help but read it as ASCII enema, which is funny, but not what I want think about. Just call it tty-player or something…

Did someone say titty player?

Touché.

But the brilliant thing about Asciinema is that the output is just text (JavaScript). You can pause it and copy text from it if you need to, and the filesize is basically nil.
