termtosvg VS terminalizer

Looking at the source, it appears to have been generated by https://github.com/nbedos/termtosvg

https://github.com/nbedos/termtosvg (dead, unknown if usable?)

Yes, it's great! I've used [termtosvg](https://github.com/nbedos/termtosvg) a lot in the past, but it seems it's archived now. :(

Apart from the obvious feels (I love that movie), the big takeaway from this for me is https://github.com/nbedos/termtosvg - makes me think, considering how much I enjoy creating documentation (sort of as a relaxing technique), why the hell haven't I jazzed up my READMEs yet?!

Maybe another alternative for inspiration: https://github.com/faressoft/terminalizer

I love it because it gives you the option to record or to prepare your file... very easy and good results.

Seems abandoned? https://github.com/faressoft/terminalizer

I'm using terminalizer (https://github.com/faressoft/terminalizer), however it might be a bit hard to get running, it doesn't seem to be maintained.

Check out terminalizer - I think you can record your terminal, edit out all of the backspaces, adjust the speed, etc and turn it into a GIF.

Terminalizer!

I'm looking for a terminal session recorder that is able to capture ncurses program nicely and correctly. I have tried asciinema which didn't quite work, just as terminalizer didn't. I haven't been able to even install ttystudio.

GIF optimization is kind of a lost art. Even programs like Terminalizer, which ought to do better, still do a crappy job of GIF export. Pop the example GIF from their GitHub page open in GIMP and you'll see that they at least decimate the framerate pretty well, but the animation still includes lots of big, pointless updates. An optimized terminal recorder should be smart enough to produce optimal output in the first place: just produce a frame containing only the characters added since the last frame, or shadowing any characters removed.
