teseq - 1.1.1-5+b1 main

GNU Teseq is a tool for analyzing files that contain control characters
and terminal control sequences, by printing these control sequences and
their meanings in readable English. It is intended to be useful for
debugging terminal emulators, and programs that make heavy use of
advanced terminal features such as cursor movement, coloring, and other
effects.
.
Teseq is useful for:
- Creating animated, interactive demos to run on the terminal (see
https://asciinema.org/a/7445 for a video on how to do this).
- Knowing the exact output of a program (did it have spaces at the
end of the line? Or maybe it contains invisible control characters?).
- Examining a text file's contents unambiguously, like cat -v or the ed
program's l command (but with much more information).
- Stripping control sequences from a text file, e.g. to produce a plain
ascii text file from a typescript file generated by the script command.
- Examining the invisible control sequences within a text file, that affect
graphical formatting or character encoding, in order to understand how
they work and where they appear in the file.
- Debugging graphical terminal applications, and terminal emulators.
