#' ANSI colored text
#'
#' cli has a number of functions to color and style text at the command
#' line. They provide a mode modern interface than the crayon package.
#'
#' The `col_*` functions change the (foreground) color to the text.
#' These are the eight original ANSI colors. Note that in some terminals,
#' they might actually look differently, as terminals have their own
#' settings for how to show them. `col_none()` is the default color, this
#' is useful in a substring of a colored string.
#'
#' The `col_br_*` functions are bright versions of the eight ANSI colors.
#' Note that on some terminal configurations and themes they might be the
#' same as the non-bright colors.
#'
#' The `bg_*` functions change the background color of the text.
#' These are the eight original ANSI background colors. These, too, can
#' vary in appearance, depending on terminal settings. `bg_none()` the
#' the default background color, this is useful in a substring of a
#' background-colored string.
#'
#' The `bg_br_*` functions are the bright versions of the eight ANSI
#' background colors. Note that on some terminal configurations and themes
#' they might be the same as the non-bright colors.
#'
#' The `style_*` functions apply other styling to the text. The currently
#' supported styling functions are:
#' * `style_reset()` to remove any style, including color,
#' * `style_bold()` for boldface / strong text, although some terminals
#'   show a bright, high intensity text instead,
#' * `style_dim()` (or `style_blurred()` reduced intensity text.
#' * `style_italic()` (not widely supported).
#' * `style_underline()`,
#' * `style_inverse()`,
#' * `style_hidden()`,
#' * `style_strikethrough()` (not widely supported).
#'
#' The style functions take any number of character vectors as arguments,
#' and they concatenate them using `paste0()` before adding the style.
#'
#' Styles can also be nested, and then inner style takes precedence, see
#' examples below.
#'
#' Sometimes you want to revert back to the default text color, in the
#' middle of colored text, or you want to have a normal font in the middle
#' of italic text. You can use the `style_no_*` functions for this. Every
#' `style_*()` function has a `style_no_*()` pair, which defends its
#' argument from taking on the style. See examples below.
#'
#' @param ... Character strings, they will be pasted together with
#'   `paste0()`, before applying the style function.
#' @return An ANSI string (class `cli_ansi_string`), that contains ANSI
#'   sequences, if the current platform supports them. You can simply
#'   use `cat()` to print them to the terminal.
