Could you support standard ANSI intensity format?

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code, one can add ;1 to display bright/bold text. But this currently doesn't work in bpython, instead, I have to prefix colored text with \033[1m to get bold effect.

The inconsistency with standard ANSI escape code brings trouble to code that relies on it. Taking my current work pdir2 as an example, color can't be properly displayed in bpython.

I would like to know if you have plan to support this? I understand that it may conflicts with the current design/API, and it's totally ok if you don't.

This is absolutely doable! I can't commit to doing it in the immediate future, but it's just some parsing code that needs to change.

[laike9m]

Sure. I'll find a workaround for now until you add this feature.

I think I'll just use a different kind of escape code for bpython, putting \033[1m in front.
