INSTALLATION
$ sudo pacman -S asciinema$ sudo apt install asciinema$ sudo dnf install asciinema$ sudo emerge -av asciinema$ pkg install py39-asciinema$ cargo install --locked --git https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema$ brew install asciinemaDESCRIPTION
Asciinema is a lightweight terminal session recorder that captures and plays back text-based command-line workflows.
Instead of recording heavy video files, it saves output as text-based asciicast files that can easily be shared, searched, and embedded.
The modern Rust-based CLI also supports streaming live terminal sessions directly over the web.
