| extended terminal format |
Simple utility written in go that extends the standard fmt.Sprintf and fmt.Printf functions. It allows you to set foreground/background color, bold, underlined and italic text.
(1) Format
Base format
${<target text>}(<fg>:<bg>)
<target text>is the text that will be colorized.<fg>is the name of the foreground color (c.f. color list), or an hex color (e.g.#00ffaa,#0fa).<bg>is the name of the background color with the same syntax as for the foreground.
Note that it is not recommended to nest the different coloring formats.
Foreground only
${<target text>}(<fg>)
<target text>is the text that will be colorized.<fg>is the name of the foreground color.
Background only
${<target text>}(:<bg>)
<target text>is the text that will be colorized.<bg>is the name of the background color.
