The fix adds: 1. A thread-local stack in RuntimeCode that tracks @_ for each subroutine call frame 2. pushArgs/popArgs calls in RuntimeCode.apply() to maintain the stack 3. getCallerArgs() method to retrieve the caller's @_ (one level up) 4. Updates to all List::Util block-taking functions to pass the caller's @_ to the code blocks This fixes Specio union type constraints which use List::Util::any with closures that reference outer @_.

It also offers the utility functions uncolor(), +colorstrip(), colorvalid(), and coloralias(), which have to be explicitly +imported to be used (see L). + +If you are using Term::ANSIColor in a console command, consider supporting the +CLICOLOR standard. See L for more information. + +See L for the versions of Term::ANSIColor that introduced +particular features and the versions of Perl that included them. + +=head2 Supported Colors + +Terminal emulators that support color divide into four types: ones that +support only eight colors, ones that support sixteen, ones that support 256, +and ones that support 24-bit color. This module provides the ANSI escape +codes for all of them. These colors are referred to as ANSI colors 0 through +7 (normal), 8 through 15 (16-color), 16 through 255 (256-color), and true +color (called direct-color by B). + +Unfortunately, interpretation of colors 0 through 7 often depends on +whether the emulator supports eight colors or sixteen colors. Emulators +that only support eight colors (such as the Linux console) will display +colors 0 through 7 with normal brightness and ignore colors 8 through 15, +treating them the same as white. Emulators that support 16 colors, such +as gnome-terminal, normally display colors 0 through 7 as dim or darker +versions and colors 8 through 15 as normal brightness. On such emulators, +the "normal" white (color 7) usually is shown as pale grey, requiring +bright white (15) to be used to get a real white color. Bright black +usually is a dark grey color, although some terminals display it as pure +black. Some sixteen-color terminal emulators also treat normal yellow +(color 3) as orange or brown, and bright yellow (color 11) as yellow. + +Following the normal convention of sixteen-color emulators, this module +provides a pair of attributes for each color. For every normal color (0 +through 7), the corresponding bright color (8 through 15) is obtained by +prepending the string C to the normal color name. For example, +C is color 1 and C is color 9. The same applies for +background colors: C is the normal color and C is +the bright color. Capitalize these strings for the constant interface. + +There is unfortunately no way to know whether the current emulator +supports more than eight colors, which makes the choice of colors +difficult. The most conservative choice is to use only the regular +colors, which are at least displayed on all emulators. However, they will +appear dark in sixteen-color terminal emulators, including most common +emulators in UNIX X environments. If you know the display is one of those +emulators, you may wish to use the bright variants instead. Even better, +offer the user a way to configure the colors for a given application to +fit their terminal emulator. + +For 256-color emulators, this module additionally provides C +through C, which are the same as colors 0 through 15 in +sixteen-color emulators but use the 256-color escape syntax, C +through C ranging from nearly black to nearly white, and a set of +RGB colors. The RGB colors are of the form C> where I, I, +and I are numbers from 0 to 5 giving the intensity of red, green, and +blue. The grey and RGB colors are also available as C through +C if you want simple names for all 256 colors. C variants +of all of these colors are also provided. These colors may be ignored +completely on non-256-color terminals or may be misinterpreted and produce +random behavior. Additional attributes such as blink, italic, or bold may +not work with the 256-color palette. + +For true color emulators, this module supports attributes of the form C<< +rIgIbI >> and C<< on_rIgIbI >> for all values of +I between 0 and 255. These represent foreground and background colors, +respectively, with the RGB values given by the I numbers. These colors +may be ignored completely on non-true-color terminals or may be misinterpreted +and produce random behavior. + +=head2 Function Interface + +The function interface uses attribute strings to describe the colors and +text attributes to assign to text. The recognized non-color attributes +are clear, reset, bold, dark, faint, italic, underline, underscore, blink, +reverse, and concealed. Clear and reset (reset to default attributes), +dark and faint (dim and saturated), and underline and underscore are +equivalent, so use whichever is the most intuitive to you. + +Note that not all attributes are supported by all terminal types, and some +terminals may not support any of these sequences. Dark and faint, italic, +blink, and concealed in particular are frequently not implemented. + +The recognized normal foreground color attributes (colors 0 to 7) are: + + black red green yellow blue magenta cyan white + +The corresponding bright foreground color attributes (colors 8 to 15) are: + + bright_black bright_red bright_green bright_yellow + bright_blue bright_magenta bright_cyan bright_white + +The recognized normal background color attributes (colors 0 to 7) are: + + on_black on_red on_green on yellow + on_blue on_magenta on_cyan on_white + +The recognized bright background color attributes (colors 8 to 15) are: + + on_bright_black on_bright_red on_bright_green on_bright_yellow + on_bright_blue on_bright_magenta on_bright_cyan on_bright_white + +For 256-color terminals, the recognized foreground colors are: + + ansi0 .. ansi255 + grey0 .. grey23 + +plus C> for I, I, and I values from 0 to 5, such as +C or C. Similarly, the recognized background colors are: + + on_ansi0 .. on_ansi255 + on_grey0 .. on_grey23 + +plus C> for I, I, and I values from 0 to 5. + +For true color terminals, the recognized foreground colors are C<< +rIgIbI >> for I, I, and I values between 0 and +255. Similarly, the recognized background colors are C<< +on_rIgIbI >> for I, I, and I values between 0 +and 255. + +For any of the above listed attributes, case is not significant. + +Attributes, once set, last until they are unset (by printing the attribute +C or C). Be careful to do this, or otherwise your attribute +will last after your script is done running, and people get very annoyed +at having their prompt and typing changed to weird colors. + +=over 4 + +=item color(ATTR[, ATTR ...]) + +color() takes any number of strings as arguments and considers them to be +space-separated lists of attributes. It then forms and returns the escape +sequence to set those attributes. It doesn't print it out, just returns +it, so you'll have to print it yourself if you want to. This is so that +you can save it as a string, pass it to something else, send it to a file +handle, or do anything else with it that you might care to. color() +throws an exception if given an invalid attribute. + +=item colored(STRING, ATTR[, ATTR ...]) + +=item colored(ATTR-REF, STRING[, STRING...]) + +As an aid in resetting colors, colored() takes a scalar as the first +argument and any number of attribute strings as the second argument and +returns the scalar wrapped in escape codes so that the attributes will be +set as requested before the string and reset to normal after the string. +Alternately, you can pass a reference to an array as the first argument, +and then the contents of that array will be taken as attributes and color +codes and the remainder of the arguments as text to colorize. + +Normally, colored() just puts attribute codes at the beginning and end of +the string, but if you set $Term::ANSIColor::EACHLINE to some string, that +string will be considered the line delimiter and the attribute will be set +at the beginning of each line of the passed string and reset at the end of +each line. This is often desirable if the output contains newlines and +you're using background colors, since a background color that persists +across a newline is often interpreted by the terminal as providing the +default background color for the next line. Programs like pagers can also +be confused by attributes that span lines. Normally you'll want to set +$Term::ANSIColor::EACHLINE to C<"\n"> to use this feature. + +Particularly consider setting $Term::ANSIColor::EACHLINE if you are +interleaving output to standard output and standard error and you aren't +flushing standard output (via autoflush() or setting C<$|>). If you don't, +the code to reset the color may unexpectedly sit in the standard output buffer +rather than going to the display, causing standard error output to appear in +the wrong color. + +=item uncolor(ESCAPE) + +uncolor() performs the opposite translation as color(), turning escape +sequences into a list of strings corresponding to the attributes being set +by those sequences. uncolor() will never return C through +C, instead preferring the C and C names (and likewise +for C through C). + +=item colorstrip(STRING[, STRING ...]) + +colorstrip() removes all color escape sequences from the provided strings, +returning the modified strings separately in array context or joined +together in scalar context. Its arguments are not modified. + +=item colorvalid(ATTR[, ATTR ...]) + +colorvalid() takes attribute strings the same as color() and returns true +if all attributes are known and false otherwise. + +=item coloralias(ALIAS[, ATTR ...]) + +If ATTR is specified, it is interpreted as a list of space-separated strings +naming attributes or existing aliases. In this case, coloralias() sets up an +alias of ALIAS for the set of attributes given by ATTR. From that point +forward, ALIAS can be passed into color(), colored(), and colorvalid() and +will have the same meaning as the sequence of attributes given in ATTR. One +possible use of this facility is to give more meaningful names to the +256-color RGB colors. Only ASCII alphanumerics, C<.>, C<_>, and C<-> are +allowed in alias names. + +If ATTR includes aliases, those aliases will be expanded at definition time +and their values will be used to define the new alias. This means that if you +define an alias A in terms of another alias B, and then later redefine alias +B, the value of alias A will not change. + +If ATTR is not specified, coloralias() returns the standard attribute or +attributes to which ALIAS is aliased, if any, or undef if ALIAS does not +exist. If it is aliased to multiple attributes, the return value will be a +single string and the attributes will be separated by spaces. + +This is the same facility used by the ANSI_COLORS_ALIASES environment +variable (see L below) but can be used at runtime, not just +when the module is loaded. + +Later invocations of coloralias() with the same ALIAS will override +earlier aliases. There is no way to remove an alias. + +Aliases have no effect on the return value of uncolor(). + +B: Aliases are global and affect all callers in the same process. +There is no way to set an alias limited to a particular block of code or a +particular object. + +=back + +=head2 Constant Interface + +Alternately, if you import C<:constants>, you can use the following +constants directly: + + CLEAR RESET BOLD DARK + FAINT ITALIC UNDERLINE UNDERSCORE + BLINK REVERSE CONCEALED + + BLACK RED GREEN YELLOW + BLUE MAGENTA CYAN WHITE + BRIGHT_BLACK BRIGHT_RED BRIGHT_GREEN BRIGHT_YELLOW + BRIGHT_BLUE BRIGHT_MAGENTA BRIGHT_CYAN BRIGHT_WHITE + + ON_BLACK ON_RED ON_GREEN ON_YELLOW + ON_BLUE ON_MAGENTA ON_CYAN ON_WHITE + ON_BRIGHT_BLACK ON_BRIGHT_RED ON_BRIGHT_GREEN ON_BRIGHT_YELLOW + ON_BRIGHT_BLUE ON_BRIGHT_MAGENTA ON_BRIGHT_CYAN ON_BRIGHT_WHITE + +These are the same as color('attribute') and can be used if you prefer +typing: + + print BOLD BLUE ON_WHITE "Text", RESET, "\n"; + +to + + print colored ("Text", 'bold blue on_white'), "\n"; + +(Note that the newline is kept separate to avoid confusing the terminal as +described above since a background color is being used.) + +If you import C<:constants256>, you can use the following constants +directly: + + ANSI0 .. ANSI255 + GREY0 .. GREY23 + + RGBXYZ (for X, Y, and Z values from 0 to 5, like RGB000 or RGB515) + + ON_ANSI0 .. ON_ANSI255 + ON_GREY0 .. ON_GREY23 + + ON_RGBXYZ (for X, Y, and Z values from 0 to 5) + +Note that C<:constants256> does not include the other constants, so if you +want to mix both, you need to include C<:constants> as well. You may want +to explicitly import at least C, as in: + + use Term::ANSIColor 4.00 qw(RESET :constants256); + +True color and aliases are not supported by the constant interface. + +When using the constants, if you don't want to have to remember to add the +C<, RESET> at the end of each print line, you can set +$Term::ANSIColor::AUTORESET to a true value. Then, the display mode will +automatically be reset if there is no comma after the constant. In other +words, with that variable set: + + print BOLD BLUE "Text\n"; + +will reset the display mode afterward, whereas: + + print BOLD, BLUE, "Text\n"; + +will not. If you are using background colors, you will probably want to +either use say() (in newer versions of Perl) or print the newline with a +separate print statement to avoid confusing the terminal. + +If $Term::ANSIColor::AUTOLOCAL is set (see below), it takes precedence +over $Term::ANSIColor::AUTORESET, and the latter is ignored. + +The subroutine interface has the advantage over the constants interface in +that only two subroutines are exported into your namespace, versus +thirty-eight in the constants interface, and aliases and true color attributes +are supported. On the flip side, the constants interface has the advantage of +better compile time error checking, since misspelled names of colors or +attributes in calls to color() and colored() won't be caught until runtime +whereas misspelled names of constants will be caught at compile time. So, +pollute your namespace with almost two dozen subroutines that you may not even +use that often, or risk a silly bug by mistyping an attribute. Your choice, +TMTOWTDI after all. + +=head2 The Color Stack + +You can import C<:pushpop> and maintain a stack of colors using PUSHCOLOR, +POPCOLOR, and LOCALCOLOR. PUSHCOLOR takes the attribute string that +starts its argument and pushes it onto a stack of attributes. POPCOLOR +removes the top of the stack and restores the previous attributes set by +the argument of a prior PUSHCOLOR. LOCALCOLOR surrounds its argument in a +PUSHCOLOR and POPCOLOR so that the color resets afterward. + +If $Term::ANSIColor::AUTOLOCAL is set, each sequence of color constants +will be implicitly preceded by LOCALCOLOR. In other words, the following: + + { + local $Term::ANSIColor::AUTOLOCAL = 1; + print BLUE "Text\n"; + } + +is equivalent to: + + print LOCALCOLOR BLUE "Text\n"; + +If $Term::ANSIColor::AUTOLOCAL is set, it takes precedence over +$Term::ANSIColor::AUTORESET, and the latter is ignored. + +When using PUSHCOLOR, POPCOLOR, and LOCALCOLOR, it's particularly +important to not put commas between the constants. + + print PUSHCOLOR BLUE "Text\n"; + +will correctly push BLUE onto the top of the stack. + + print PUSHCOLOR, BLUE, "Text\n"; # wrong! + +will not, and a subsequent pop won't restore the correct attributes. +PUSHCOLOR pushes the attributes set by its argument, which is normally a +string of color constants. It can't ask the terminal what the current +attributes are. + +=head2 Supporting CLICOLOR + +L proposes a standard for enabling and +disabling color output from console commands using two environment variables, +CLICOLOR and CLICOLOR_FORCE. Term::ANSIColor cannot automatically support +this standard, since the correct action depends on where the output is going +and Term::ANSIColor may be used in a context where colors should always be +generated even if CLICOLOR is set in the environment. But you can use the +supported environment variable ANSI_COLORS_DISABLED to implement CLICOLOR in +your own programs with code like this: + + if (exists($ENV{CLICOLOR}) && $ENV{CLICOLOR} == 0) { + if (!$ENV{CLICOLOR_FORCE}) { + $ENV{ANSI_COLORS_DISABLED} = 1; + } + } + +If you are using the constant interface, be sure to include this code before +you use any color constants (such as at the very top of your script), since +this environment variable is only honored the first time a color constant is +seen. + +Be aware that this will export ANSI_COLORS_DISABLED to any child processes of +your program as well. + +=head1 DIAGNOSTICS + +=over 4 + +=item Bad color mapping %s + +(W) The specified color mapping from ANSI_COLORS_ALIASES is not valid and +could not be parsed. It was ignored. + +=item Bad escape sequence %s + +(F) You passed an invalid ANSI escape sequence to uncolor(). + +=item Bareword "%s" not allowed while "strict subs" in use + +(F) You probably mistyped a constant color name such as: + + $Foobar = FOOBAR .

None of +the other functions will be affected, and no new color constants will be +created. The custom colors are aliases for existing color names; no new +escape sequences can be introduced. Only alphanumerics, C<.>, C<_>, and +C<-> are allowed in alias names. + +The format is: + + ANSI_COLORS_ALIASES='newcolor1=oldcolor1,newcolor2=oldcolor2' + +Whitespace is ignored. The alias value can be a single attribute or a +space-separated list of attributes. + +For example the L colors +can be mapped with: + + ANSI_COLORS_ALIASES='\ + base00=bright_yellow, on_base00=on_bright_yellow,\ + base01=bright_green, on_base01=on_bright_green, \ + base02=black, on_base02=on_black, \ + base03=bright_black, on_base03=on_bright_black, \ + base0=bright_blue, on_base0=on_bright_blue, \ + base1=bright_cyan, on_base1=on_bright_cyan, \ + base2=white, on_base2=on_white, \ + base3=bright_white, on_base3=on_bright_white, \ + orange=bright_red, on_orange=on_bright_red, \ + violet=bright_magenta,on_violet=on_bright_magenta' + +This environment variable is read and applied when the Term::ANSIColor +module is loaded and is then subsequently ignored. Changes to +ANSI_COLORS_ALIASES after the module is loaded will have no effect. See +coloralias() for an equivalent facility that can be used at runtime. + +=item ANSI_COLORS_DISABLED + +If this environment variable is set to a true value, all of the functions +defined by this module (color(), colored(), and all of the constants) will not +output any escape sequences and instead will just return the empty string or +pass through the original text as appropriate. This is intended to support +easy use of scripts using this module on platforms that don't support ANSI +escape sequences. + +=item NO_COLOR + +If this environment variable is set to any value, it suppresses generation of +escape sequences the same as if ANSI_COLORS_DISABLED is set to a true value. +This implements the L informal standard. Programs that +want to enable color despite NO_COLOR being set will need to unset that +environment variable before any constant or function provided by this module +is used. + +=back + +=head1 COMPATIBILITY + +Term::ANSIColor was first included with Perl in Perl 5.6.0. + +The uncolor() function and support for ANSI_COLORS_DISABLED were added in +Term::ANSIColor 1.04, included in Perl 5.8.0. + +Support for dark was added in Term::ANSIColor 1.08, included in Perl +5.8.4. + +The color stack, including the C<:pushpop> import tag, PUSHCOLOR, +POPCOLOR, LOCALCOLOR, and the $Term::ANSIColor::AUTOLOCAL variable, was +added in Term::ANSIColor 2.00, included in Perl 5.10.1. + +colorstrip() was added in Term::ANSIColor 2.01 and colorvalid() was added +in Term::ANSIColor 2.02, both included in Perl 5.11.0. + +Support for colors 8 through 15 (the C variants) was added in +Term::ANSIColor 3.00, included in Perl 5.13.3. + +Support for italic was added in Term::ANSIColor 3.02, included in Perl +5.17.1. + +Support for colors 16 through 256 (the C, C, and C +colors), the C<:constants256> import tag, the coloralias() function, and +support for the ANSI_COLORS_ALIASES environment variable were added in +Term::ANSIColor 4.00, included in Perl 5.17.8. + +$Term::ANSIColor::AUTOLOCAL was changed to take precedence over +$Term::ANSIColor::AUTORESET, rather than the other way around, in +Term::ANSIColor 4.00, included in Perl 5.17.8. + +C through C, as aliases for the C and C colors, +and the corresponding C names and C and C constants +were added in Term::ANSIColor 4.06, included in Perl 5.25.7. + +Support for true color (the C and C +attributes), defining aliases in terms of other aliases, and aliases mapping +to multiple attributes instead of only a single attribute was added in +Term::ANSIColor 5.00. + +Support for NO_COLOR was added in Term::ANSIColor 5.01. + +=head1 RESTRICTIONS + +Both colored() and many uses of the color constants will add the reset escape +sequence after a newline. If a program mixes colored output to standard +output with output to standard error, this can result in the standard error +text having the wrong color because the reset escape sequence hasn't yet been +flushed to the display (since standard output to a terminal is line-buffered +by default). To avoid this, either set autoflush() on STDOUT or set +$Term::ANSIColor::EACHLINE to C<"\n">. + +It would be nice if one could leave off the commas around the constants +entirely and just say: + + print BOLD BLUE ON_WHITE "Text\n" RESET; + +but the syntax of Perl doesn't allow this. You need a comma after the +string. (Of course, you may consider it a bug that commas between all the +constants aren't required, in which case you may feel free to insert +commas unless you're using $Term::ANSIColor::AUTORESET or +PUSHCOLOR/POPCOLOR.) + +For easier debugging, you may prefer to always use the commas when not +setting $Term::ANSIColor::AUTORESET or PUSHCOLOR/POPCOLOR so that you'll +get a fatal compile error rather than a warning. + +It's not possible to use this module to embed formatting and color +attributes using Perl formats. They replace the escape character with a +space (as documented in L), resulting in garbled output from +the unrecognized attribute. Even if there were a way around that problem, +the format doesn't know that the non-printing escape sequence is +zero-length and would incorrectly format the output. For formatted output +using color or other attributes, either use sprintf() instead or use +formline() and then add the color or other attributes after formatting and +before output. + +=head1 NOTES + +The codes generated by this module are standard terminal control codes, +complying with ECMA-048 and ISO 6429 (generally referred to as "ANSI +color" for the color codes). The non-color control codes (bold, dark, +italic, underline, and reverse) are part of the earlier ANSI X3.64 +standard for control sequences for video terminals and peripherals. + +Note that not all displays are ISO 6429-compliant, or even X3.64-compliant +(or are even attempting to be so). This module will not work as expected +on displays that do not honor these escape sequences, such as cmd.exe, +4nt.exe, and command.com under either Windows NT or Windows 2000. They +may just be ignored, or they may display as an ESC character followed by +some apparent garbage. + +Jean Delvare provided the following table of different common terminal +emulators and their support for the various attributes and others have +helped me flesh it out: + + clear bold faint under blink reverse conceal + ------------------------------------------------------------------------ + xterm yes yes no yes yes yes yes + linux yes yes yes bold yes yes no + rxvt yes yes no yes bold/black yes no + dtterm yes yes yes yes reverse yes yes + teraterm yes reverse no yes rev/red yes no + aixterm kinda normal no yes no yes yes + PuTTY yes color no yes no yes no + Windows yes no no no no yes no + Cygwin SSH yes yes no color color color yes + Terminal.app yes yes no yes yes yes yes + +Windows is Windows telnet, Cygwin SSH is the OpenSSH implementation under +Cygwin on Windows NT, and Mac Terminal is the Terminal application in Mac +OS X. Where the entry is other than yes or no, that emulator displays the +given attribute as something else instead. Note that on an aixterm, clear +doesn't reset colors; you have to explicitly set the colors back to what +you want. More entries in this table are welcome. + +Support for code 3 (italic) is rare and therefore not mentioned in that +table. It is not believed to be fully supported by any of the terminals +listed, although it's displayed as green in the Linux console, but it is +reportedly supported by urxvt. + +Note that codes 6 (rapid blink) and 9 (strike-through) are specified in ANSI +X3.64 and ECMA-048 but are not commonly supported by most displays and +emulators and therefore aren't supported by this module. ECMA-048 also +specifies a large number of other attributes, including a sequence of +attributes for font changes, Fraktur characters, double-underlining, framing, +circling, and overlining. As none of these attributes are widely supported or +useful, they also aren't currently supported by this module. + +Most modern X terminal emulators support 256 colors. Known to not support +those colors are aterm, rxvt, Terminal.app, and TTY/VC. + +For information on true color support in various terminal emulators, see +L. + +=head1 AUTHORS + +Original idea (using constants) by Zenin, reimplemented using subs by Russ +Allbery , and then combined with the original idea by +Russ with input from Zenin. 256-color support is based on work by Kurt +Starsinic.
