Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/mthenw/frontail/issues/72

this is a pretty cool project, having some issues though

the tail command (using bash terminal) on Mac OSX seems to filter out (interpret) control chars

Is there an option to do so with frontail?

the red line at the top is via control chars, so not sure why that got interpreted correctly - it was a part of the first 10 lines from the original tail command if that's of any help

also it doesn't appear that new line chars are being honored either, here is what iTerm2 looks like tailing the same file:

here is the equivalent data viewed via frontail:

Weird, lines are converted using https://github.com/drudru/ansi_up. Looks like something wrong here.

I can probably prevent logging control chars upstream, but then I won't get any colors. Definitely would be great to have colors available in the browser. Let me know if you need more info.

any luck investigating this? I haven't thought about it much but will let you know if I can think of a good reason why it may happen
