term2md

This is a text processing utility that will convert input containing ANSI escape sequences into nearly-equivalent Markdown.

This is not currently a universal converter, since Markdown cannot express all of the formatting possible with the ANSI control characters. However, it does a reasonable job of handling green, red, and bold text.

term2md was written originally so that output from a tool designed for terminal output could be added via continuous integration as comments on pull requests.

Installation

$ pip install term2md

In addition to installing the core Python module, it will also install a term2md executable script for you.
