Does anyone know how to record `irb` using `termtosvg`? `irb`'s usage of ANSI cursor control sequences really messages with `termtosvg`, even if I disable the fancy new auto-completion drop-down menu stuff.

Bummer, termtosvg is _not_ capable of recording irb/reline's terminal control characters and auto-suggestion list. The resulting text is all jumbled and overlapping.

Is there a fake shell that will type out commands from a script and then execute them? I want to record a series of terminal commands with termtosvg, but I kind of don't want to manually type them in because I'll probably make mistakes and have to start over multiple times.

If you saw a recording of someone using a CLI util in the terminal on a project website or in a README, would you prefer that the commands be manually typed in or copy/pasted in?

Playing around with termtosvg and it's pretty cool. However, if I include the generated SVG animation, it for some reason changes the color of a <text> element in a completely different inlined SVG on the page.🤷
