# Installation

`pip install fansi`

To uninstall: `pip uninstall fansi`

# Usage
## First steps
First, include fansi in your script: 

> `from fansi import fansi`

Then, instead of `print()` statements, use `fansi.say()`.

> `fansi.say("This string can have fansi formatting!")`

If you want to generate a formatted string without printing it, use `fansi.format()`.

> `a = fansi.format("Here's a string ::blue:: formatted with Ansi characters! ::end:: It's partly blue!")`

## Basic formatting

To add italics, use `_tags_` or `*tags*`. To add bolding, use `__tags__` or `**tags**`. To add bolding and italics, use `___tags___` or `***tags***`.

For example:
> `fansi.say("This _text will be italicised_. This text will be **bolded**. ___This text will be both___.")`

## Inline tagging

You can add Ansi formatting characters inline, affecting the colour or emphasis of your text, using `::tags::` To reset the formatting, use the `::end::` tag.

For example: 
> `fansi.say("This text will be normal. ::green bold italics:: This text will be green, bold and italicised. ::end:: This text will be back to normal.")`

## Global tags

Fansi tags can also be added to the entire string.

For example: `fansi.say("This text will be magenta on a blue background.", "magenta bg-blue")`

## Emojis

You can also add any emoji, using `:tags:`. Long and shortnames work.

For example: 
> `fansi.say("Here are some :poop: emojis! :panda_face::tiger::cat:")`'

That's it!
