# ANSI Support classes for Java Swing

It supports basic [ANSI escape code] styles and colors, but _not_ all escape codes for various reasons.

Classes and interfaces are provided for both [Java](./java/README.md) and [Kotlin](./kotlin/README.md).

These classes are useful for creating a "text terminal" in editor panes using a monospaced font and basic ANSI styles

and colors to give it a look and feel like a real terminal.

Here is a demo of how a [JEditorPane] can be styled by using an `AnsiEditorKit`, which is a [EditorKit] used to create

styled documents based on [ANSI escape code].
