If you just want to see the output on your terminal, you can directly print it as well:
Formatting is just for debugging purposes. It's not possible to create the circuit back from its textual representation. See How to Deploy if that's your goal.

You can show the drawing in a Jupyter notebook, like this:
Or, you can use the show

method to show the drawing with matplotlib
.
