Control chars encoding

[rui-bernardino]

Hi,

I found that there are significant differences while replaying typescripts that contain terminal control chars, eg, lynx or vim.

Doing a side-by-side comparison between JSON's typescript blob and the original typescript (using a modified scriptreplay.pl), the differences are notorious and it affects the timing consequently the content itself. I also tried creating the JSON files using PERL and the results are identical to shelr's, so I conclude that it must be a problem with the JSON enconding of the control chars.

But this doesn't seem to affect all shelr recordings: eg, http://shelr.tv/records/532c72fe9660806ab200006d looks great, but http://shelr.tv/records/5307a80796608042a5000006 clearly has timing issues.

Could this be a setting on my system (eg. locale)? Any thoughts on this?

Thanks
