Honestly, I don't think this is going to go very far. - You don't know that the output of the script is a terminal accepting ANSI escapes. - You don't know if the user is running in light or dark mode - Color blindness must be taken into account If you really want to add this feature, you need to make it selectable and configurable. I honestly don't see that it would be worth it. Thanks, jon
