• Terminal Gif Maker - We are back with huge updates. v2 is ready.

  I've never had the need to use any of them, but I've always felt like https://asciinema.org/ has to be the end-game of these tools. If for no other reason than the fact that when playing it back you can pause and copy the text from the terminal. - Source: Reddit / 20 days ago

• Recreating sci-fi terminals using VHS

  I feel like the blog post is at fault for not introducing VHS, more so than the tool itself for calling itself that. Of course, for something as ubiquitously known as VHS it needs no introduction...except it's not actually talking about the magnetic storage format, it's a "tool" named VHS[0]. All of that aside, it seems like a poor alternative to asciinema[1] [0] https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs [1]... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• VHS: a tool for generating terminal GIFs with code (written in Go)

  This is so great. Using https://asciinema.org/ was nice, but it required me to be a perfect typist in real time or go back and painstakingly fix a bunch of imperfect stuff. - Source: Reddit / 5 months ago
