Great! Next step: torturetest.vt

There is https://github.com/webpro/ANSI.tools/blob/main/packages/pars... and others

I was thinking of <http://artscene.textfiles.com/vt100/torturet.vt>.

The lexer and parser handled it perfectly first try. The HTML renderer had a few issues though, but it's being rendered reasonably well now. The torture test has been added to the package tests and to the website as an example.

Does it crash the tester?

There is some recovery in the lexer, but would love to learn what would make it crash! The url you provide gives a 404.

I.e. <https://invisible-island.net/ncurses/tctest.html>
