icholy/ttygif
Project
Description
ttygif converts a ttyrec terminal recording file into animated GIF files. It captures every frame of a terminal session recorded with ttyrec and assembles them into a GIF using ImageMagick.
Installation Method
Built from source using the GitHub release tarball and installed to /usr/local/bin via make install. Build dependencies (gcc, make) and runtime dependencies (imagemagick, ttyrec, x11-apps) are installed via APT.
Other Notes
Because ttygif uses xwd to capture X11 window screenshots at runtime, it requires a running X server (or virtual framebuffer such as Xvfb) when actually recording GIFs. The binary can be installed in a headless container but will need an X11 environment to function fully.
