This left me speechless until I could figure out what was happening:
I was running a screen session started like so:
$ screen -S xscrn
I wanted to test some prospective changes to my .screenrc, so from this
same screen session I started an xterm:
$ xterm -tn "xterm-256color"
.. and proceed
Hi Jae,
I spent several hours trying to tackle this same issue. I wanted to
share what I found out. I found 2 programs that do a pretty good job in
removing the escape codes:
1. Ansifilter: http://www.andre-simon.de/doku/ansifilter/ansifilter.html
2. Ansi2txt: http://sourceforge.net/proj
