"arg" is a string or None
if "arg" is None : the terminal is reset to his default values.
if "arg" is a string it must contain "sep" separated values.
if args are found in globals "attrs" or "colors", or start with "@" \
they are interpreted as ANSI commands else they are output as text.
colors, if any, must be first (foreground first then background)
you can not specify a background color alone ; \
if you specify only one color, it will be the foreground one.
@* commands handle the screen and the cursor :
@x;y : go to xy
@ : go to 1;1
@@ : clear screen and go to 1;1
examples:
echo('red') : set red as the foreground color
echo('red blue') : red on blue
echo('red blink') : blinking red
echo() : restore terminal default values
echo('reverse') : swap default colors
echo('cyan blue reverse') : blue on cyan <=> echo('blue cyan)
echo('red reverse') : a way to set up the background only
echo('red reverse blink') : you can specify any combinaison of \
attributes in any order with or without colors
echo('blink Python') : output a blinking 'Python'
echo('@@ hello') : clear the screen and print 'hello' at 1;1

Note that most terminals don't handle most of the attributes, the colors seem to be well supported though.
You can run this module to find out what is supported by your terminal.
