Simple utility written in `go` that extends the standard `fmt.Sprintf` and `fmt.Printf` functions. It allows you to set foreground/background color, **bold**, <u>underlined</u> and _italic_ text.
----
## (1) Format
##### Base format
```go
${<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](https://git.xdrm.io/go/clifmt/src/master/colors.go#L15)*), 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
```go
${<target text>}(<fg>)
```
- `<target text>` is the text that will be colorized.
- `<fg>` is the name of the foreground color.
##### Background only
```go
${<target text>}(:<bg>)
```
- `<target text>` is the text that will be colorized.
- `<bg>` is the name of the background color.
