How hard would it be to add some sort of pause button to aid in selecting from the capture? Also, it appears you can only select when you are viewing the image directly, not when it is embedded via an tag. Is that fixable? I guess maybe an might work, but I haven't played with it yet.
The example animation looks broken in Safari (including Tech Preview 59), works in Chrome 67 (of course), and in Firefox 61. [Edit: This seems to be a macOS/driver bug affecting only some models]
This is great for many of the same reasons that asciinema is great -- smooth animation and selectable text. The resulting svg is orders of magnitude smaller than a gif would be.

I don't see any problems with Safari 11.1.1 on macOSX or on mobile Safari on my iPhone.

Animated SVG animations (really just an svg element + animated css) are significantly smaller, more efficient, and crisper than equivalent GIF animations. I wrote about the difference between the two here: https://hackernoon.com/presenting-your-code-beautifully-fdba... As I explained in the above article, this is already possible with asciinema + svg-term-cli ( https://github.com/marionebl/svg-term-cli ). The one dow…
You're competing with webm / mp4 not gif though. Editing the HTML attribute to width=2000% is pretty sweet however because it's a vector. I'm guessing if the example wasn't in an image tag I could select the text too?
What're people using tools like this for? I see the usage surely when demonstrating something in the terminal - and many times used for showcasing projects and tools. Are you using the recordings for other purposes, like to document work and share progress with your team + manager for instance for work you're doing during a sprint (good for demo'ing things at the end of the sprint too).

It would be good to adjust the failure mode so that if SMIL is not supported then at least a meaningful frame (probably the last, though scrolling makes it difficult to decide!) is shown, rather than just a blank rectangle.
That said, I'm absolutely loving this as the file size and the memory footprint of this SVG is super-small relative to what a .gif of the same content would be. Great work!
