Can someone please tell me how to filter escape codes from a text file? I'm using `cu' to connect to a remote computer which uses things like reverse video. The only way I have of printing anything from this computer is to capture the entire session to a log file and then edit and print it. Editing out escape codes is _extremely_ tedious. I'm sure there is some simple solution to this problem (maybe using `tr'?). I can't read news, only post it, so could you please mail replies direct to me. Thanks!
