This software converts a sequences record file generated by ttyrec into a gif animation directly(without taking screenshots), by using portable built-in terminal emulation engine originated from yaft. yaft provides rare terminal emulation features such as SIXEL/DRCS.
Play sl.
Show SIXEL animation with img2sixel.
The following demo plays sl and records it with ttyrec, and converts that record into a GIF animation using seq2gif, and converts that GIF into a SIXEL animation and plays it with img2sixel. Furthermore, generates the log record of above experience using ttyrec, and converts that log into the following GIF animation.
Source package and Windows binary is available.
This software works in Windows, Linux, BSDs and OSX. If you want to build windows native build, MinGW is required.
$ ./configure
$ make
# make install
Usage: seq2gif [Options] < ttyrecord > record.gif
seq2gif [Options] -i ttyrecord -o record.gif

DELAY specified in milliseconds.
(default: 20)
