cape-cod makes it easy for you to append ANSI escape-codes - HAR! bet you didn't see that coming - to your strings.
YES. We can cite colored, colorize, term-ansicolor, ANSI and so on... They are really nice gems, and they solve the escape code problem in different manners but they're all kind of abandoned, with a lot of lingering issues...
My point with this gem is to implement many of the possible ways of appending ANSI escape codes to strings (monkey patching, blocks, etc) and let the user choose whatever he likes. I for instance prefer the colored's monkey patch approach, but for some people it doesn't suit, so other options should be offered.
Please contribute!
