//! Colorize and stylize strings at compile-time, by using an HTML-like syntax.
//!
//! This library provides the following macros:
//!
//! - `cformat!(<FORMAT_STRING> [, ARGS...])`
//! - `cprint!(<FORMAT_STRING> [, ARGS...])`
//! - `cprintln!(<FORMAT_STRING> [, ARGS...])`
//! - `cstr!(<FORMAT_STRING>)`
//! - `untagged!(<FORMAT_STRING>)`
//!
//! [`cformat!()`], [`cprint!()`], and [`cprintln!()`] have the same syntax as `format!()`,
//! `print!()` and `println!()` respectively, but they accept an additional syntax inside the
//! format string: HTML-like tags which add terminal colors/styles at compile-time.
//!
//! *Note*: these tags are commonly named "*color tags*" in the documentation below.
//!
//! [`cstr!()`] only transforms the given string literal into another string literal, without
//! formatting anything else than the colors tag.
//!
//! [`untagged!()`] removes all the color tags found in the given string literal.
//!
//! ## What does it do ?
//!
//! By default, the provided macros will replace the color tags found in the format string by ANSI
//! hexadecimal escape codes. E.g.:
//!
//! ```
//! # use color_print::cprintln;
//! # fn main() {
//! cprintln!("HELLO <green>WORLD</green>")
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! will be replaced by:
//!
//! ```
//! # use color_print::cprintln;
//! # fn main() {
//! println!("HELLO \u{1b}[31mWORLD\u{1b}[39m")
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! *Note*: it is possible to change this behaviour by activating the feature `terminfo`. Then it
//! will question the `terminfo` database at runtime in order to know which sequence to write for
//! each kind of styling/colorizing (see below for more detail).
//!
//! # Pros/cons of this crate
//!
//! ## Pros
//!
//! * Styling is processed at compile-time, so the runtime payload is quite inexistant (unless the
//! feature `terminfo` is activated);
//! * Nested tags are well handled, e.g. `"<green>...<blue>...</blue>...</green>"`;
//! * Some optimizations are performed to avoid redundant ANSI sequences, because these
//! optimizations can be done at compile-time without impacting the runtime;
//! * Almost every tag has a short name, so colorizing can be done quickly: `"my <b>blue</> word"`;
//! * Each provided macro can be used exactly in the same way as the standard `format!`-like
//! macros; e.g., positional arguments and named arguments can be used as usual;
//! * Fine-grained error handling.
//!
//! ## Cons
//!
//! * Many CLI programs detect on runtime if they are actually piped to another command or not, and
//! decide to colorize their output based on this information. As `color-print` formats strings at
//! compile-time, this is not possible to do that easily;
//! * Not compatible with non-ANSI Windows terminals (and not tested at all on Windows, feedbacks
//! are welcome);
//! * Not tested on Mac, feedbacks are welcome.
//!
//! # Introduction
//!
//! ## Basic example
//!
//! ```
//! use color_print::cprintln;
//! cprintln!("Hello <green>world</green>!");
//! ```
//!
//! ## Closing a tag more simply: the `</>` tag
//!
//! Basically, tags must be closed by giving exactly the same colors/styles of the matching open
//! tag (with a slash `/` at the beginning). But it can be tedious!
//!
//! So, it is also possible to close the last open tag simply with `</>`:
//!
//! ```
//! # use color_print::cprintln;
//! # fn main() {
//! cprintln!("Hello <green>world</>!");
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! ## Combining colors and styles
//!
//! Multiple styles and color(s) can be combined into a single tag by separating them with the `,`
//! comma character:
//!
//! ```
//! # use color_print::cprintln;
//! # fn main() {
//! cprintln!("This a <green,bold>green and bold text</green,bold>.");
//! // The same, but closing with the </> tag:
//! cprintln!("This a <green,bold>green and bold text</>.");
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! Of course, combining multiple foreground colors or multiple background colors into the same tag
//! is useless (in such a case, only the last one is taken into account).
//!
//! ## Nesting tags
//!
//! Any tag can be nested with any other, as long as the closing tags match correctly (following
//! the basic rules of nesting for HTML tags):
//!
//! ```
//! # use color_print::cprintln;
//! # fn main() {
//! cprintln!("<green>This is green, <bold>then green and bold</bold>, then green again</green>");
//! cprintln!("<green>This is green, <bold>then green and bold</>, then green again</>");
//!
//! // Colors can be nested as well:
//! cprintln!("<green>This is green, <blue>then blue</blue>, then green again</green>");
//! cprintln!("<green>This is green, <blue>then blue</>, then green again</>");
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! ## Unclosed tags are automatically closed at the end of the format string
//!
//! Tags which have not been closed manually will be closed automatically, which means that the
//! ANSI sequences needed to go back to the original state will be added:
//!
//! ```
//! # use color_print::cprintln;
//! # fn main() {
//! // The two following lines are strictly equivalent:
//! cprintln!("<green><bold>Hello");
//! cprintln!("<green><bold>Hello</></>");
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! ## How to display the chars `<` and `>` verbatim
//!
//! As for `{` and `}`, the chars `<` and `>` have to be doubled in order to display them verbatim:
//!
//! ```
//! # use color_print::cprintln;
//! # fn main() {
//! cprintln!("This is an angle bracket character: <<, and here is another one: >>");
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! # Optimization: no redundant ANSI codes
//!
//! The expanded format string will only contain the *needed* ANSI codes. This is done by making a
//! diff of the different style attributes, each time a color tag is encountered, instead of
//! mechanically adding the ANSI codes.
//!
//! E.g., several nested `<bold>` tags will only produce one bold ANSI sequence:
//!
//! ```
//! # use color_print::cprintln;
//! # fn main() {
//! cprintln!("<bold><bold>A <bold,blue>B C D</> E</></>")
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! will be replaced by:
//!
//! ```
//! # use color_print::cprintln;
//! # fn main() {
//! println!("\u{1b}[1mA \u{1b}[34mB C D\u{1b}[39m E\u{1b}[22m")
//! // ^-------^ ^--------^ ^--------^ ^--------^
//! // bold blue color bold
//! // reset reset
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! # The feature `terminfo`
//!
//! Instead of inserting ANSI sequences directly into the format string, it is possible to activate
//! the feature `terminfo`: this will add the format sequences at runtime, by consulting the
//! `terminfo` database.
//!
//! This has one pro and several cons:
//!
//! #### Pros
//!
//! * This adds a level of compatibility for some terminals.
//!
//! #### Cons
//!
//! * This adds a little runtime payload;
//! * This adds two dependencies: [`lazy_static`] and [`terminfo`];
//! * The styles `<strike>` and `<conceal>` are not handled;
//! * With `terminfo`, many styles are not resettable individually, which implies longer format
//! sequences for the same result;
//! * For now, the provided macros can only be used in one thread.

//!
//! # Naming rules of the color tags:
//!
//! Each color/style tag has at least a long name, like `<magenta>` or `<underline>`.
//!
//! The tags directly relative to *colors* (like `<red>`, `<bg:blue>`, `<bg:bright-green>`..., as
//! opposed to *style* tags like `<bold>`, `<italics>`...) have some common naming rules:
//!
//! * Each color tag has four variants:
//! - `<mycolor>`: the normal, foreground color;
//! - `<bright-mycolor>` or `<mycolor!>`: the bright, foreground color;
//! - `<bg:mycolor>`: the normal, background color;
//! - `<bg:bright-mycolor>`, `<bg:mycolor!>`, `<BRIGHT-MYCOLOR>` or `<MYCOLOR!>`: the bright,
//! background color;
//! * Each color tag has a *shortcut*, with a base letter for each color (example with the `x`
//! letter):
//! - `<x>`: the normal, foreground color;
//! - `<x!>`: the bright, foreground color;
//! - `<bg:x>` or `<X>`: the normal, background color;
//! - `<bg:x!>` or `<X!>`: the bright, background color;
//! * Except for the color `<black>`, each color's shortcut letter is simply the first letter of
//! its name, e.g. `<y>` is the shortcut for `<yellow>`;
//! * Each color's tag which is uppercase is a background color;
//! * Each tag which has a trailing exclamation point `!` is a bright color;
//!
//! # List of accepted color/style tags:
//!
//! The two first columns show which styles are supported, respectively with the default crate
//! features (ANSI column), and with the feature `terminfo` being activated.
//!
