asciinema-cat - Concatenate multiple recordings

asciinema cat [-q|--quiet] [-h|--help] <FILE>

Concatenate multiple recordings into one.

Combines two or more asciicast files in sequence, adjusting timing so each recording plays immediately after the previous one ends. Useful for creating longer recordings from multiple shorter sessions.

Note: in asciinema 2.x this command used to print raw terminal output for a given session file. If you're looking for this behavior then use `asciinema convert -f raw <FILE> -` instead.

Suppress diagnostic messages and progress indicators. Only error messages will be displayed.
Print help (see a summary with '-h')
