Issue
I have a file with a bunch of terminal logs captured with the screen utility. Here's a snippet:
[A[0m[27m[24m[J[34m~[39m
(base) [38;5;242mbase[39m [35m❯[39m ]133;B[K[?1l>[?2004l
[A[0m[27m[24m[J[34m~[39m
etc etc etc.
The output is full of ANSI escape codes, \r, \n, etc. Yet my terminal manages to render it all quite nicely, and I imagine I ought to be able to as well. I have found some libraries that convert ANSI codes to HTML, but I don't think they handle any of the other escaping.
I still feel like someone must have solved this problem, somehow, before me. Is there an easy way to do this?
