This is great. Small, trivial suggestion: the gif that loops in the README should pause on the screen w/ the output for a few seconds longer - it disappears (restarts) too quickly to take in all of the output.
https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs is a really good utility for automatically making these gifs.

Hm, very interesting! This only converts asciinema recordings, though, right? It doesn't automatically record anything?
svg-term --command 'cowsay hey there'
But that has the aforementioned issues about not pausing enough, so I usually just record with asciinema first and then invoke svg-term.Re: Show HN: Witr – Explain why a process is running on your Linux system

#28Sounds like something I could use, but installing a binary via `curl` doesn't sit right with me. Next problem you have is "explain how this thing was installed on my system" followed "is it up to date (including security patches). I hope they have deb package or snap some day.
