Installation

Download the latest version

To start off, please head to the releases page and download a pre-built jar.

If you don't trust me for some reason, feel free to download the latest released source code and build it your self.

Import the library to your IDE/project

This process depends on the IDE, so just do it as it is done with your's.

Usage

Using colors

Colors can be used like this:

System.out.println(TextColors.red + "Look at what I can do!" + TextColors.reset);
System.out.println(TextColors.bgred + "Look at what I can do!" + TextColors.reset);

Using styles

Styles can be used like this:

System.out.println(TextStyles.bold + "Look at what I can do!" + TextStyles.reset);
System.out.println(TextColors.underline + "Look at what I can do!" + TextColors.reset);

Alternatively, you can use Clilib's wrapper methods:

Colors:

System.out.println(Color.blue("Ciao!"));

Backgrounds:

System.out.println(Background.red("Sain bainuu!"));

Formatting:

System.out.println(Formatting.bold("Halo!"));

Lining:

System.out.println(Lining.underline("Silaw!"));

This way, you can combine several stylings at once very easily:

System.out.println(Background.green(Lining.underline(Color.blue("Ndêwó!"))));
System.out.println(Lining.strikethrough(Color.purple("Yassou!")));
