Soo, the point is to boost your entire audience's impostor syndromes by showing off what terminal-fu you have, when in reality you don't?
Actually, my hope is that people use this technique more often until it stops looking magical, which is why I submitted the link in the first place. I wanted to give it more exposure.
I've used this technique a couple a few times to deliver presentations, and it seems that all that people notice is the hacker typing, or at least that's what they most comment on, instead of the content of the talk. I don't know if they really are being distracted away from the content, but in case they are, I want the technique to be pedestrian.

This is an example of what this looks like:

I had a nice discussion with the author of doitlive who was inspired by my own ad-hoc and personal hacky version of this code to rewrite it in a better way for the masses.

This has been possible for a while with Shellcast: http://tty.tv/
This seems neat, but not the same thing? The idea with doitlive is that you pre-record a session and then you "hacker-type" it back. http://hackertyper.com/
Seems like shellcast is for connecting your current shell session with a webpage, not for replaying pre-recorded sessions?

Hahaha, http://hackertyper.com/ is brilliant.
Full points for proactively lowering the production budget of C-grade hacker films.

I think I will have to make a hacker film just for this....
My mistake... I didn't look close enough at this.
PlayerPiano is a similar existing program:

It's in PyPi and was demo'd at PyCon 2011 in the lightning talk sessions.

Yeah, but it only works for Python sessions, right? doitlive does shell and Python sessions. Perhaps other kinds some day?
