bash-tint

Build Status GitHub license GitHub stars awesomeness

Bash-tint aims to make your script's output nice and colorful, as easy as possible.

# Compare regular ANSI/VT100 Control sequences
echo -e "e[97m\e[46mT\e[49m\e[45mI\e[49m\e[43mN\e[49m\e[40mT\e[49m\e[39m is fun!"
# To the simplicity of tint:
tint "white(Cyan(T)Magenta(I)Yellow(N)Black(T)) is fun!"

It is more readable than the regular ANSI/VT100 Control sequences:

# Can you guess what will this output?
^[[97m^[[41mR^[[49m^[[43mA^[[49m^[[103mI^[[49m^[[42mN^[[49m^[[104mB^[[49m^[[44mO^[[49m^[[45mW^[[49m^[[39m$

# How about this?
tint "white(Red(R)Yellow(A)Light_yellow(I)Green(N)Light_blue(B)Blue(O)Magenta(W))"

It also comes with tintf, the colorful sister of printf:

tintf "Running test: bold(%s) %s" "Test XYZ" "green([OK])"
