Description

Hi!

I am new to building interactive CLIs, so I am not sure of if this feature falls into the API area of console crate or in a TUI library like ratatui.

I want to print a string into the terminal with center alignment, does this is supported or will supported by this crate? I am asking it because I don't want to depend on the ratatui crate just for centering a text in the terminal.

Thanks in advance!
