Usage

Example Usage

println "red".red()
println 'blue and underlined'.blue().underline()
println "I'm all kinds of blue and bold".cyan().bgBlue().bold()
println "I'm the inverse of the line above".cyan().bgBlue().bold().inverse()

This module attempts to determine if a terminal is capable of color. If not, it will not add any ansi escape characters to the string.
