  4. asciinema-player

    Web player for terminal session recordings

  5. t-rec-rs

    Blazingly fast terminal recorder that generates animated gif images for the web written in rust

    I tried asciinema and I forgot which others, but I eventually used t-rec because itโ€™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.

  6. vhs

    Your CLI home video recorder ๐Ÿ“ผ

  7. termgrep

    Grep over asciinema logs

    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:

    https://github.com/moyix/termgrep

    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.

        # Check if not already recording and inside tmux
