Is there a way to get the result of deno doc in an uncolored version.

[unborn moth]

Whenever I do deno doc file I get a colored version as usual. But if I have this code:

const p = Deno.run({
  cmd: ["deno","doc","file"],
  stdout: "piped"
});

const out = await p.output();

It keeps the colored version as it should. The issue is if I want to write the result to a file like:

const p = Deno.run({
  cmd: ["deno","doc","file"],
  stdout: "piped"
});

const uint8 = new TextEncoder().encode(await p.output());

Deno.writeFile("output",uint8);

I get a file that looks a little like:

i want to write a readable version of the result of deno doc to a file, thats the issue

sorry if my question wasnt very clear

but i need to remove the colors to make it readable

i guess i could do something with regex and replacement
