While ANSI color escape codes are fairly simple, it can be hard to
|
|
remember the codes for all of the attributes and the code resulting
|
|
from hard-coding them into your script is definitely difficult to
|
|
read. This module is designed to fix those problems, as well as
|
|
provide a convenient interface to do a few things for you
|
|
automatically (like resetting attributes after the text you print out
|
|
so that you don't accidentally leave attributes set).
|
|
|
|
Despite its name, this module can also handle non-color ANSI text
|
|
attributes (bold, underline, reverse video, and blink). It uses either
|
|
of two interfaces, one of which uses "constants" for each different
|
|
attribute and the other of which uses two subs which take strings of
|
|
attributes as arguments.
