'ansi' - a CLI utility to quickly get ANSI escape codes

ansi-escape-sequences-cli provides an executable called ansi which can be used in a shell or in a shell script to easily colorize and style terminal output.

Usage

• Add ansi to your PATH
• Embed it in your shell scripts like this:

  # You need "-e" to let echo replace the escaped ESC symbol
  echo -e "$(ansi yellow bold)WARNING$(ansi reset): There was a problem"
  # Or use echo without "-e":
  echo "$(ansi yellow bold --escape-style=direct)WARNING$(ansi reset): There was a problem"
  

• Type --help for more guidance!
