A dead simple ANSI terminal color painting library for Rust.

```rust
use yansi::Paint;

print!("{} light, {} light!", Paint::green("Green"), Paint::red("red").underline());
```

See the [documentation](https://sergio.bz/rustdocs/yansi/) for more.

# Why?

Several terminal coloring libraries exist ([`ansi_term`], [`colored`],
[`term_painter`], to name a few), begging the question: why yet another? Here
are a few reasons:

  * This library is _much_ simpler: there are three types!
  * Unlike [`ansi_term`] or [`colored`], _any_ type implementing `Display`
    or `Debug` can be stylized, not only strings.
  * Styling can be enabled and disabled globally, on the fly.
  * Arbitrary items can be [_masked_] for selective disabling.
  * Styling can [_wrap_] any arbitrarily styled item.
  * Typically only one type needs to be imported: `Paint`.
  * Zero dependencies. It really is simple.
  * The name `yansi` is pretty short.

All that being said, this library borrows API ideas from the three libraries as
well as implementation details from [`ansi_term`].
