Sometimes you type in something private (directory names, hidden ip adresses).

there should be a method to anonymize some data before uploading.

@srawlins commented on GitHub (Oct 2, 2012):

This sounds... near impossible. The recorder has no notion of these concepts. A directory name, as individual letters, doesn't even need to correspond with keystrokes, what with autocompletion, backspacing, etc.

I think it is 100% the user's responsibility not to record sensitive info. Many things in the shell can be masked with environment variables, etc.

What about a way to play/pause locally, then select text to blur/star it out?

I'm with @srawlins on this. Any approach to this problem would complicate the code a lot and would not solve the whole problem sufficiently. This is not a responsibility for this simple recorder.

Maybe proposed behavior described in #21 is something that you may like.
