📄 Description

I would like to explore the idea of having asciinema working with shebangs, thus having asciicasts work by uttering:

./file.cast

I wanted to have some example code, in order to start the discussion.

The file would have to be made executable after it is created. I think this should be an argument to asciinema rec, something like -e -- make executable cast.

I think supporting arguments like -s speed and the rest is technically doable, but may require some command-line magic and maybe some changes to asciinema play, or even an entire new play mode.
