To highlight using colors:
../snippets/getting_started_1.py
This will emit ansi escapes into the string: one when starting a color, another to reset the color back to the default:
>>> from ansicolor import green
>>> green("green")
'\x1b[0;0;32mgreen\x1b[0;0m'
If I want to be able to pass a color as an argument I can also use the colorize
function:
../snippets/getting_started_2.py
I can also apply color on a portion of a string:
../snippets/getting_started_3.py
