re: garbled screenlog

[Simon Pole]

Hi Screen-Users,

Having problems with my screenlogs recording garbled output.  A simple 
log of ls -l seems fine, but when I used the log to record output from 
an irc and a mud client, the screenlog is filled with extra characters.  
I assume this has to do with the ansi colour characters used by the 
clients.  Is there any way to convert the log to ascii, or read the ansi 
characters in the original format?

Cheers
Simon Pole
