Description

Trying to record a Powershell terminal session on Mac. The recording goes fine, but when I attempt to play the session the output contains terminal ASNI escape sequences

For example

```
^[[25;1RPS /Users/echo testing5;27R
```

Any ideas how to prevent this from happening?

Research direction

Start by reproducing a recorded PowerShell session on macOS and compare its normal recording output with the replayed output. Investigate where the replay emits the shown ANSI escape sequences, and consider the issue done when replayed sessions no longer display those sequences as literal text.
