That's essentially what https://text.brow.sh https://text.brow.sh is already doing right? Eg; `curl https://text.brow.sh/https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1

  It's close, but it doesn't actually output the escape codes. It would be cool if there were different formats besides text and html. Maybe vt100.brow.sh, ansi.brow.sh, etc. That way when I curl it from a terminal it renders like the actual terminal client. Add terms that commercial use of the site requires an account setup and some pricing info. They can always host it themselves, but like many things, most people would rather pay someone else to do it.

    Oh! I never thought of sending the escape codes over curl. Great idea, thank you.
