Category:Wren-ansi

Wren-ansi is a module which facilitates the use of Control Sequence Introducers (CSI) in ANSI Escape Codes. The aim is to be able to use CSI commands which control colors, character style, cursor movement and general screen operations in a user friendly manner without having to deal with the escape codes directly. It consists of static methods in four classes: Screen, Cursor, Color and Style which deal with their respective aspects.

It is the forty-ninth in a series of modules (listed on the language's main page) designed to assist with writing Rosetta Code tasks so the same code does not have to be written or copy/pasted time and time again thereby bloating a task's script code unnecessarily.

To use it you need to copy the source code (in the talk page) to a text file called ansi.wren and place this in the same directory as the importing script so the command line interpreter can find it.

As there is a dependency on the Wren-check module, you also need to copy that (if it is not already present) to the same directory as described here. Unless you are using classes in that module directly, there is no need to 'import' them into your script and the Check class can even be imported via Wren-ansi itself.

Wren-ansi also has a dependency on the IO module which is part of Wren-cli's standard library. As such it can only be used in a Wren-cli (or Wren-std) script.
