I've not needed that as I use asciinema. However, a quick google online shows a couple of candidates

Take your pick!
I'll leave this open for a bit in case the community has a better suggestion....
Hey... thanks for the suggestions.. I'd tried ttygif but didnt get it to work, but ttystudio led me to a fork of it, toughtty that allows you to control when the recording starts, which works great for staring the recording manually.
My use case is generating fun gifs to paste into Slack that are branded with lol animations and text ;-) So I don't want anyone to actually see it was a terminal window at all, just a retro looking animation that I made super fast!
$ toughtty record out.json
toughtty encode --delay 100 out.json test.gif
I found toughtty by browsing the active forks of ttystudio https://techgaun.github.io/active-forks/index.html#chjj/ttystudio
and then installed it under node v8

Nice.
I'd like to record an asciimatics animation to a gif, at the command line.
Any suggestions on how to do this? Thanks!
