Maybe that my wording is off. This are not interactive demos, but more like demos of interactive use in console ... "animated interaction demos". These use asciinema, which is a nice tool and I think it's good to display interesting interactions compactly. But yes, for deeper look it moves too fast for one, so something what you describe could be better. I could have these animations for getting attention and then linking to transcripted, detailed document. Do you have any example of a good way of displaying such console session statically?

I think the <pre> tag with a bit of styling might do it?
