New action: Bold/Highlight

[g0tmi1k]

Currently there are the following actions in Patator: ignore, retry, free & quit.
Could there be a new one called 'bold'?

This could be then used to highlight results, making it easier to locate certain responses.

The result could be in bold/or a different text colour.

[lanjelot]

that's a cool idea, do you wanna have a crack at implementing it?

[g0tmi1k]

I've given it a shot - but was unable todo it.
Needs someone who has a lot more python knowledge then me

@g0tmi1k, you mean like this?

@hvqzao That works for me!
Wasn't exactly what I had in mind - however I think that fits in 'better' with the project overall =).

What I panned was to highlight the whole row, rather than the selected phrase (which is what triggers the selection).

/me tips hat.
Looking forward to the PR =)

@lanjelot would above diff work for you as well? I looked at it again and did few more changes toward applying color in Response_Base class (code below). Will you apply the patch (one that fits best) or should I issue a pull request?

I know its going off topic, but I just found out about coloredlogs (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/coloredlogs).
Views on putting this into Patator?

[lanjelot]

Thanks for your inputs guys. You've had me thinking of adding a --color option where patator would have every result of the same code & size in the same color (% fuzzy hash or something).

Liking the sound of it! Makes analysing the data that little bit easier =)
