;;; Commentary:

;; This file provides a function that takes a string containing Select
;; Graphic Rendition (SGR) control sequences (formerly known as ANSI
;; escape sequences) and tries to replace these with text-properties.
;;
;; This allows you to run ls --color=yes in shell-mode: If
;; `ansi-color-for-shell-mode' is non-nil, the SGR control sequences are
;; translated into text-properties, colorizing the ls output.  If
;; `ansi-color-for-shell-mode' is nil, the SGR control sequences are
;; stripped, making the ls output legible.
;;
;; SGR control sequences are defined in section 3.8.117 of the ECMA-48
;; standard (identical to ISO/IEC 6429), which is freely available as a
;; PDF file <URL:http://www.ecma.ch/ecma1/STAND/ECMA-048.HTM>.  The
;; "Graphic Rendition Combination Mode (GRCM)" implemented is
;; "cumulative mode" as defined in section 7.2.8.  Cumulative mode means
;; that whenever possible, SGR control sequences are combined (ie. blue
;; and bold).

;; The basic functions are:
;;
;; `ansi-color-apply' to colorize a string containing SGR control
;; sequences.
;;
;; `ansi-color-filter-apply' to filter SGR control sequences from a
;; string.
;;
;; `ansi-color-apply-on-region' to colorize a region containing SGR
;; control sequences.
;;
;; `ansi-color-filter-region' to filter SGR control sequences from a
;; region.

;; Instead of defining lots of new faces, this package uses
;; text-properties as described in the elisp manual
;; *Note (elisp)Special Properties::.

;;; Thanks

;; Georges Brun-Cottan <[e-mail]> for improving ansi-color.el
;; substantially by adding the code needed to cope with arbitrary chunks
;; of output and the filter functions.
