libpipecolors

This library parses input like printf and sprintf but instead of returning a boring string it will replace renegade bbs style pipecodes (|09) with their ansi equivelent.

It has two functions -

int pcprintf(const char * format, ...);
int pcsprintf(char * str, const char * format, ...);

To Do

• Remove std::map requirement
• Remove boost requirement without forcing -std=c++11 (Reduced size from 1.2M to 87K)

Example use

#include <cstdio>
#include <iostream>
#include <pipecolors.h>

using namespace pipecolors;

int main(void) {

  int num = 5;
  const char* str = "My number is";
  pcprintf("|02%s |10%d|39\n", str, num);

  return 0;
}

This would return \x1b[0;32mMy number is \x1b[0;92m5\x1b[0;39m\n, Printing str in dark green and num in light green
