Dahlia.rs

A Rust port of Dahlia — a simple text formatting package, inspired by the game Minecraft.

Text is formatted in a similar way to in the game. With Dahlia, it is formatted by typing a marker (& by default in the original implementation) followed by a format code and finally the text to be formatted.

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml: toml [dependencies] dahlia = "1.1"

Color Format Codes

Each digit/letter corresponds to a hex value (dependent on the color depth). The coloring can be applied to the background if a ~ is inserted between & and the code.
