Certain terminal emulators are vulnerable to attacks through escape sequence
features. While these bugs should be fixed in the terminals themselves, it would
be nice if monkeytail could also filter them out for extra safety, in case an 
admin
is tailing an affected logfile in a vulnerable terminal.

I believe that it would simply involve removing/escaping the ACSII escape 
character
(0x1B).
