Asciinema CLI 3.0 rewritten in Rust, adds live streaming, upgrades file format


News about asciinema development and new releases

This is a complete rewrite of asciinema in Rust, upgrading the recording file format, introducing terminal live streaming, and bringing numerous improvements across the board. In asciinema CLI 2.4, released 2 years ago, I made the upload command show a prompt where you have to explicitly make a decision on what to do with the recording. This change should make it easier to use the CLI with your own asciinema server, and at the same time it doubles as an additional guard preventing unintended data leaks (to asciinema.org).
