Crazy dark pattern for a command line utility. If you miss filename, recording goes to some server.

- layer8 3y agoYep, recording and upload should really be two separate commands by default.
- ku1ik 3y agoThanks. This behavior dates back to 2011, and while there 2 separate commands you can use today (asciinema rec <filename> + asciinema upload <filename>) the demo on the homepage and the docs may be giving wrong impression. This will be definitely improved in the upcoming 3.0.
- wlamartin 3y agoWhen recording finishes you are given the option to upload or save to local file.
- ku1ik 3y agoThere’s no bad intention here, and there’s upload confirmation prompt in versions prior to 2.4, while in 2.4+ you make explicit choice (save, upload, discard). In upcoming 3.0 we will probably decouple upload from record command completely.
