Reset color to default

[IngwiePhoenix]

Hey.

Is there a way to reset the current color? Like when I use setColor(2) and want to later return to what it was before i launched my application, how could I possibly do that?

Kind regards,
Ingwie.

Currently not supported by the lib, but

• If you are using ANSI escapes, you could try printing this escape code: "\033[39;49m".
• On Windows, could check the current console color on app start with GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo and save that for later use.

I am currently using [0m to reset properly. I thought rlutil was using ANSI escapes?

The windows function however should do it, cant test it on my Mac though :).

Would be great to see a function like this implemented in rlutil. I am trying to find a library to help me write an application that only really uses coloured console text - but this is so different on windows and UNIX...
