t-rec-rs VS termgrep

I tried asciinema and I forgot which others, but I eventually used t-rec because it’s able to easily compress to a small size file that I can upload to GitHub (see demo on here https://GitHub.com/Langroid/Langroid) and it also creates mp4 filed that I can upload to loom etc.

I think it was terminalizer. That was before I created t-rec

this is now officially fixed on v.0.4.2

The startup time mentioned is actually a big deal for me – I do record all of my terminal sessions (I even wrote a tool that uses his avt library to grep through the terminal logs, although I never got around to making it fast enough to be really useful: https://github.com/moyix/termgrep), and with the Python version I often lose the first few characters of my first command in a new terminal because asciinema is still starting up...

I recently started using this for recording all my terminal sessions (without upload). It's pretty neat to be able to go back and replay any session I had. I also threw together a small tool to grep through the output, although it's currently pretty slow:

I stuck this in my .profile to record any session started under TMUX and avoid recursive recording. It compresses the logs with zstd when you exit.
