# Frequently Asked Questions
|
|
|
|
## Can I embed the asciicast player on my blog?
|
|
|
|
Sure, see [embedding docs](#{docs_path(:embedding)}).
|
|
|
|
## How can I delete my asciicast?
|
|
|
|
In order to delete your asciicast you need to associate your local API token
|
|
(which was assigned to the recorded asciicast) with the asciinema.org
|
|
account. Just run `asciinema auth` in your terminal and open the printed URL
|
|
in your browser. Once you sign in you'll see a "Delete" link on your
|
|
asciicast's page.
|
|
|
|
## How can I point asciinema client to the custom asciinema instance?
|
|
|
|
You can easily tell asciinema client to use custom API URL by adding
|
|
following setting to _~/.asciinema/config_ file:
|
|
|
|
[api]
|
|
url = http://localhost:3000
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can set `ASCIINEMA_API_URL` env variable:
|
|
|
|
ASCIINEMA_API_URL=http://localhost:3000 asciinema rec
|
|
|
|
## Can I edit/post-process the recorded asciicast?
|
|
|
|
TL;DR answer: No, you can't. Not yet.
|
|
|
|
That's tricky. You can't do that at the moment. And there is a little chance
|
|
asciinema will allow for this in the future. The thing is, the recording
|
|
consists of two streams: text printed to the terminal and the timing
|
|
information (how many characters to print after what delay). If you deleted
|
|
some text from the first stream you would need to track the appropriate item
|
|
in the second stream and adjust the number of characters for it. Otherwise
|
|
the replay of the asciicast would get broken and just look improper.
|
|
|
|
Also, some characters in the text stream are not printable characters, they
|
|
are escape sequences used to change the text foreground and background color,
|
|
erase some areas of the terminal etc. Each sequence depends on the state of
|
|
the terminal at a given moment. By (accidently) removing these sequences you
|
|
could break the whole output so it would display mostly rubbish.
