I like the idea. I haven't used the tool, but what I'd love to (maybe it already does this) is to be able to take a recording and turn it into a text document showing what to run, what output to expect and so on.

Something that lets one turn a terminal recording into a document showing how to redo that thing without having to watch a video and no need to copy/paste between terminal and text editor, take screenshots and such.

Maybe this could be achieved by recording in a human readable file format and then running it via an LLM with right prompt.

Then I'd like it to record all the time.

I always have a bunch of tmux sessions running. I've set it up to save the history of all sessions, but obviously the history is one file. Something like this could resolve it nicely.

You can get a plain text log of a recorded session in several ways.

If you uploaded to asciinema server (e.g. asciinema.org) then you can click on Download and select txt format.

Or, with the CLI 3.0, you can either:

- convert existing cast file to plain text: asciinema convert demo.cast demo.txt

- record directly to plain text: asciinema rec demo.txt

		ok, but can you take a recording and turn it into a text document showing what to run, what output to expect and so on. IE: I think the person your replying to would like to have a tool that rebuilds a terminal session as a, for example, step by step guide. Not just grab it as a text file.
