Print colored text to the terminal

Using the colored crate it is super easy to print text on the terminal using colored text.

Dependency

examples/colored-terminal/Cargo.toml

[package]
name = "colored-terminal"
version = "0.1.0"
edition = "2021"

[dependencies]
colored = "2.1.0"

Code

examples/colored-terminal/src/main.rs

use colored::Colorize;

fn main() {
    let text = "Hello, world!";
    println!("{}", text);
    println!("{}", text.red());
    println!("{}", text.red().bold());
    println!("{}", text.blue().bold());
    println!("{}", text.truecolor(0, 136, 136));
    println!("{}", text.white().bold().on_black());
}

Output

Windows

In the source code of ruff I saw the following lines in the main function:

    // Enabled ANSI colors on Windows 10.
    #[cfg(windows)]
    assert!(colored::control::set_virtual_terminal(true).is_ok());

I only tried this crate on Ubuntu Linux.
