screen/script output and funny color characters

[Ian Melnick <dazed@vonsteuben.cps.k12.il.us>]

Hello all,

say I've captured a lot of stuff from screen and script, and have an
output file with a lot of information in it that I don't need -- and
makes reading the files pretty difficult. Is there a program or script
to make viewing/editing this output easier? Strip the color codes,
placement, etc?

thanks in advance
