Lilian Besson.
Python v2.7+ (but not v3). A P3K compatible version is in progress !
This project is now hosted on Pypi module repository.
The complete documentation of the module is available, see here on pythonhosted.org.
All the details (installation, options, etc) are in the doc. Anyway, here are somes infos.
The project is just the main script ANSIColors.py.
Download or copy it from this git repository, then launch python setup.py install.
More details can be found in the INSTALL file.
The project is entirely written in Python, version 2.7.3.
For more details about the Python language, see the official site. Python 2.7.1 or higher is required.
The project have been developped on GNU/Linux (Ubuntu 11.10).
It also have been quickly tested on Windows 7 with the Cygwin environment and Python 2.7.
It shall also work on Mac OS X, but not been tested. Any suggestion or returns is welcome !
This project was part of my work realised for the MPRI 1-21 net programming lesson. The MPRI is the Parisian Master for Research in Computer Science (Master Parisien de Recherche en Informatique in French).
The documentation is produced mainly with Sphinx, the Python's documentation generator.
I wrote a few scripts to help Sphinx to do what I wanted, and to generate a PyDoc version of the doc too.
Those scripts constitute now an independant and a powerful project. It is hosted here on my Google Site
