Description

Description:

Create a function that displays messages with different colors.

Type: Refactor

Why:

Right now, we are using four types of function that uses different colors:

  • say: blue
  • complain: red
  • warning: yellow
  • success: green

This is ok, but we should also provide a way to display messages with a different color that does not mean a specific thing. For example, we should display a message in a yellow color without the need to use a warning function.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing say, complain, warning, and success output functions in the shell code. The work is done when a generic function can display a message in a caller-selected color without relying on a semantic function name; the issue does not identify a specific file or test to run.
