Make ANSI escape sequences human-readable. Useful for debugging, learning, or inspecting terminal output.

Examples (5)

Describe ANSI escape sequences from a string

printf "\x1b[38;5;4mCiao, \x1b[1;7mBaby.\x1b[0m\n" | sequin

Inspect colorized output from another command (e.g., `ls`)

ls -l --color=always | sequin

Examine a file containing ANSI sequences (e.g., a TUI golden file)

cat path/to/file.golden | sequin

Execute a command directly within a fake TTY to inspect its output

sequin -- ls -l go.*

Highlight raw ANSI sequences inline for easier reading

git -c status.color=always status -sb | sequin -r
