This crate exports two simple compile-time ANSI formatting macros — `csi` and
`ansi` — as well as shortcut helpers for `blink`, `bold`, `dim`,
`italic`, `strike`, and `underline`.
## Examples
```rust
use fyi_ansi::{ansi, csi};
// The `csi` macro generates (only) the ANSI formatting sequence.
assert_eq!(csi!(bold, underline), "\x1b[1;4m");
// The `ansi` macro generates formatted content strings.
assert_eq!(
concat!(ansi!((bold, light_red) "Error:"), " Oh no!"),
"\x1b[1;91mError:\x1b[0m Oh no!",
);
```
The `bold`, `dim`, etc., macros are only shortcuts, but can help declutter
your code when there's only the one style being toggled.
```rust
use fyi_ansi::{blink, bold, dim, italic, strike, underline};
// Same as with `ansi`, they terminate with a blanket reset by default.
assert_eq!(bold!("I'm bold!"), "\x1b[1mI'm bold!\x1b[0m");
assert_eq!(dim!("I'm dim!"), "\x1b[2mI'm dim!\x1b[0m");
assert_eq!(italic!("I'm italic!"), "\x1b[3mI'm italic!\x1b[0m");
assert_eq!(underline!("I'm underlined!"), "\x1b[4mI'm underlined!\x1b[0m");
assert_eq!(blink!("I'm annoying!"), "\x1b[5mI'm annoying!\x1b[0m");
assert_eq!(strike!("I'm struck!"), "\x1b[9mI'm struck!\x1b[0m");
```
