Formats

Formats are provided as json.

Format files inform the color encoding patterns for output.

• See /formats for example formats. Add to these in the format of your choice!
• See /lib/mud_painter/config for format fields

Symbols

Repetitions in the symbols determine any leading zeroes if applicable.

Example:

If symbol = {r} and number = 10 (base 10), result will be "10"
If symbol = {rrr} and number = 10 (base 10), result will be "010"
