Example:

Example

Python
from colorist import Effect

print(f"I want {Effect.UNDERLINE}underlined text{Effect.UNDERLINE_OFF}")

print(f"I want {Effect.BOLD}emphasized text{Effect.BOLD_OFF}")

How it appears in the terminal:

% I want underlined text
% I want emphasized text

Tip

Similar to Color.OFF, remember to turn off an effect with the relevant reset option (e.g Effect.BOLD_OFF, Effect.DIM_OFF, etc. or even just Effect.OFF) every time you want to revert back to the default terminal text style. Otherwise, the effect may spill over and into other terminal messages.
