Makes ANSI escape character sequences for producing colored terminal text and
|
||
|
cursor positioning work under MS Windows.
|
||
|
|
||
|
ANSI escape character sequences have long been used to produce colored terminal
|
||
|
text and cursor positioning on Unix and Macs. Colorama makes this work on
|
||
|
Windows, too, by wrapping stdout, stripping ANSI sequences it finds (which
|
||
|
otherwise show up as gobbledygook in your output), and converting them into the
|
||
|
appropriate win32 calls to modify the state of the terminal. On other platforms,
|
||
|
Colorama does nothing.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Colorama also provides some shortcuts to help generate ANSI sequences but works
|
||
|
fine in conjunction with any other ANSI sequence generation library, such as
|
||
|
Termcolor.
