ansiPHP
=======

[](#ansiphp)

A simple Library with static classes they generate ANSI Control Sequences and return the code as a `string`.

It makes the code more readable as a lot of cryptic ANSI code in a long string.

[](#the-commands-are)

- `Clear::toEnd`: Clears everything for the current cursor position to the end.
- `Clear::toStart`: Clears everything for the current cursor position to the start.
- `Clear::All`: Clears everything.

Example #1: Clear everything from the cursor to the end of the line.

Ansi\Clear::line(Clear::toEnd)
```

Example #2: Clear the whole screen.

```
Ansi\Clear::screen(Clear::All)
