Details

This function applies styling to a vector. It allows customization of text style (bold, italic, monospace), text color, font size, and text decorations (underline, strikeout). The styling is applied element-wise to the vector. Vectors are coerced with as.character() before styling.

Value

A character vector with applied styling.

Examples

# Basic styling
style_vector(c("Hello", "World"), bold = TRUE, color = "red")

# Different styles per element
style_vector(
  c("Bold text", "Italic text", "Monospace"),
  bold = c(TRUE, FALSE, FALSE),
  italic = c(FALSE, TRUE, FALSE),
  monospace = c(FALSE, FALSE, TRUE)
)

# Single style applied to all elements
style_vector(c("A", "B", "C"), color = "blue", fontsize = 1.2)
