OK. Thanks.

question, would it better to have an export as ASCII characters (like to a .txt file) or as an video with ascii art (like if you'd record it)?

I think it’s better to export an video with ascii art. Because video is more interesting than text.

hmmm well i think how about adding both a txt and video option. cuz i think its better in terms of perfomance or so i belive as a terminal user. 😄

Yeah you're probably right. The export as txt is easy, however the video option is a bit more involved.

If you take a look at the "export-asciiart" branch, you'll see that I've already started writing a software text renderer and video encoder.

My main concern was that I didn't want to add a huge list of dependencies so I've decided to go that way.

Unfortunately, I'm really busy with other projects at the moment. I'll still try to contribute every now and then.

well yeah even though the video option is a bit involved its univrsally availabe and easy to use. but txt will have some limitations on rendering or stuff if no work is involved my opinion as a newbie in the world of coding and programming. os yeah for each frame then etc. but hey i maybe wrong. do let me know. also thanks for your work my idea was exaactly like this. glad to see it in motion 😄

@Sandesh13fr hmm its not a feature implmentation yet

hmm ok so i think i might have um find an alternative solution... (linux only i think) so instead of local export. we can use Asciinema. it just works hmmm. so um its not really like an local export.. i just remembered about this. been a long time so... you can check em out
