I first encountered it as part of the OCaml distribution.  You should
be able to find it in apt, and I think someone mentioned that it's
available in mac portage.

It's not quite as useful as Emacs shell modes (or one of the inferior
modes) since it has no idea about the syntax of the thing it's
wrapping around, and you can't search backwards either (or both) your
history or the previous output, but if you're not an Emacs user or
just want to wrap something simply on the shell then it'll might just
work for you.

Big thanks for the talk, it was interesting and informative.  It was
great to meet everyone.
