Supports Linux, Mac OS X and *BSD

asciinema [as-kee-nuh-muh] is a free and open source solution for recording terminal sessions and sharing them on the web. Read about how it works.

Simple recording

Record right where you work - in a terminal. To start just run asciinema rec, to finish hit Ctrl-D or type exit.
