@dani Haha 😎
I'm running a (heavily configured) #fvwm3 here. This screenshot was just for demonstration that #dos2ansi and #showansi don't depend on any configuration, so this was a completely unconfigured X session in #Xephyr, which by default runs #twm.
You can even see the test mode in #xterm can only use 8 colors (because this is what the default xterm #terminfo entry announces), still the #xterm windows launched by #showansi have full color support, they explicitly set the terminal name to "xterm-256colors".

Not having added anything to #dos2ansi for a while now, I'd say v2.0 is the "final" version for now. I initially wanted that for v1.0, and it's amazing how many weird files, edge cases, and also ideas for improvements you can discover for something that "simple" 🙈
I have ideas for future development, like provide the core functionalities as a shared library, like add some config file for dos2ansi itself as well (instead of just for #showansi), maybe even more ... but all of that can wait, it's IMHO "complete" as it is.
A #Debian package is attached to the release on github, and a #FreeBSD port is added ... anyone wants to help make it available in more repositories? 😎 Would be most helpful if the fonts it uses by default are packaged as well and can be set as dependencies ...

And now, the full docs for #dos2ansi v2.0 are available online as well:
https://zirias.github.io/dos2ansiIMHO manpages are an awesome documentation format. And with a little bit of "responsive" #CSS, they're well usable on a mobile as well -- I wished the typical "online man" sites would do something like that 😉

Released: #dos2ansi v2.0
https://github.com/Zirias/dos2ansi/releases/tag/v2.0The real "visible change" is documentation. #showansi now got a manpage as well, and the one for #dos2ansi improved a lot. Also better build instructions and some updates/corrections in the README. With these docs, you can hopefully make it do exactly what you want 😉
Also, the build system (my own homebrewn #GNU #make framework) got lots of improvements and fixes.

I'm planning to create a release #dos2ansi v2.0 soon, which will have more or less the feature set of v1.8, but with complete and helpful documentation for everything. Main work left to do for that is to add more text to the manpages 😉
At least, the tool I wrote for generating docs now has everything I'll need for that!

And now, my little documentation generation tool can also produce manpages in #HTML format (this will be useful for the #Windows version of #dos2ansi) 😎
Using simple/minimal semantic markup, the "manpage style" is entirely left to #CSS
Screenshots:
- Desktop unstyled
- Desktop bright mode
- Desktop dark mode
- Mobile dark mode -

Now working on adding a manpage for #showansi as well. I noticed I need to add features to my "mkclidoc" tool in order to get something meaningful here ...
First step, added support for cross-references 😎 -- next thing needed will be documenting related files...
Next #dos2ansi release will probably just be nice and complete documentation!

Here's a quick demo how the new documentation generation in #dos2ansi works 😎
https://github.com/Zirias/mkclidocScreenshots:
- Input format (on github)
- help (-h) output (on #Windows)
- manpage (on #FreeBSD)Might make sense to add some #HTML output as well, e.g. for the Windows binary package... 🤔

#dos2ansi v1.8 released!
https://github.com/Zirias/dos2ansi/releases/tag/v1.8There's some major rework inside adding support for seekable streams, which was necessary to implement the logic detecting #SAUCE even when the preceding DOS EOF character is missing.
Quite some improvements to the #showansi script as well, now comes with "fontsets" (explained in the comments in these and the config file) 😎
Plus added a manpage. Wanted a single source of truth (shared with the help output) and didn't find a good tool for that, so I quickly came up with my own:
https://github.com/Zirias/mkclidoc
It's bundled with dos2ansi now. Can produce man in both classic troff and BSD mandoc. The default choice is based on `uname` for now, tested on #FreeBSD and #Debian. -
