In a post from a few weeks ago, someone mentioned terminal 
colors. Currently, I have one that works with bash (cmd pending) 
at https://github.com/carlor/dcaflib.

Example code:

import dcaflib.ui.terminal;

import std.stdio;

void main() {
     fgColor = TermColor.RED;
     writeln("this is red!");
     fgColor = TermColor.BLUE;
     writeln("this is blue!");
}

This worked for me with Ubuntu. Though I had to use rdmd instead
of dmd.

I'm using a version like this for Windows for one of my programs.

I've found with unix OS's you can't edit text very nice at all
using readln(); etc. Windows doesn't have that problem. I don't
even bother with stuff because of it.

Nathan, what terminals are supported? Only ANSI / VT* or some other types of 
terminals as well?

I've only tested it on OSX Terminal, but I read about the 
features on a Linux website, and have used the "ANSI escape code" 
Wikipedia article as reference, so I assume it's ANSI.
