Could you add a flag to toggle ANSI output that defaults to true, and works something like...

defp puts(data), do: data |> IO.ANSI.format(ansi?) |> IO.puts()

One can use NO_COLOR=1 mix sobelow, Elixir support that environment variable OOtB since 1.10. For earlier versions it can be done by ERL_FLAGS="-elixir ansi_enabled false" mix sobelow.

The problem is that, as-is, output isn't colored by default when Sobelow is installed as an escript.

@hauleth I know it's been some time since this MR, but were you interested in getting this over the finish line?

From what I can tell, the last bit of work for this is the flag to toggle the ANSI output that Griffin first mentioned.

Closing due to staleness - happy to reopen later / fold the changes into a new PR if someone stumbles upon this and desires this feature.
