Do you mean the control codes?

 

[%pupil -sceptical]

The 'cryptic' stuff you see are escape sequences produced by the shell for e.g. use colored output.
Just
cat typescript test.txt
and you get it as it was seen.

To be more correct:
Those escape sequences are codes to control the terminal's output.

Apparently there seems no editors/gedit option or plugin to filter those ANSI escape sequences.

In ports is a small program, textproc/ansifilter, which can filter those escape sequences out, i.e.:

ansifilter -i test.txt -T | gedit -

Dear richardtoohey2:
no, i just want to use gedit open test.txt display normal , no unread word. thanks.

What is the “unread word”? Everyone thinks you are talking about the control codes/escape sequences like [0m but maybe you mean something else?
