When you're playing around with your shell you can typically use a bunch of control sequences to set colors and styles to your text, but these are hard to remember... at least, in my experience.
This script should provide a slightly easier way to use those controle sequences. E.g. when you want to have red bold text on white background, you'd normally go:
\033[31m\033[1m\033[47mSome text\033[m
With this script, you can just go:
./crayon.py -c red -s bold -b white "Some text"
You have to admit, it's more intelligible.
Enough banter; the code:
1 #!/usr/bin/python
2 #
3 # Crayon
4 #
5 # A simple script to color your text and wotnot. This basically uses
6 # \033-type sequences and color codes that may or may not work with your
7 # shell.
8 #
9 # Parameters:
10 # -s STYLE | --style=STYLE Specify a style (see list below).
11 # -c COLOR | --color=COLOR Specify a color (see list below).
12 # -b COLOR | --background=COLOR Specify a color (see list below).
13 # -k | --keep-style Do not reset styles after echo-ing.
14 # -d | --default Reset settings.
15 # -n | --no-newline Do not append a new line to the result.
16 # -r | --raw Print control sequences without applying them.
17 # -h | --help Print usage information (this).
