Description

Could not find anything related to changing color to print in the terminal, especially for printing ascii letters,
if this feature is not available then it would be good to add it?

@codewithnick Hi
Thanks for your comment 💯
Text coloring in the terminal is a bit hacky! Some interesting libraries like termcolor work on it. So it's not necessary for art to support it directly.

>>> from termcolor import colored, cprint
>>> from art import text2art
>>> cprint(text2art("test"), "red")

@sadrasabouri What do you think?

You're right. It's better for packages to be atomic. I prefer art sticks to its main goal.
