     colorPrintN  [<indent>] <color> <text>

DESCRIPTION

   General
     colors is a collection of functions that make it very easy to put colored text on tty.

     The function list:

	   colorReset	    Resets current tty color back to normal
	   colorPrint	    Prints TEXT in the color COLOR indented by INDENT (without adding a newline)
	   colorPrintN	    The same as colorPrint, but trailing newline is added

     Detailed interface description follows.

   Available colors:
	   Green
	   Red
	   Yellow
	   White
     The color parameter is non-case-sensitive (i.e. RED, red, ReD, and all the other forms are valid and are the same as Red).

FUNCTIONS DESCRIPTIONS

   colorSet <color>
     Sets the current printing color to color.

   colorReset
     Resets current tty color back to normal.

   colorPrint [<indent>] <color>
     Prints text using the color color indented by indent (without adding a newline).

     Parameters:

       <indent>

	 The color to use.

		  $ echo 'Hello World'
		  $ colorReset

	  Using colorPrint:
		  $ colorPrint 'Hello World'; echo

	  Using colorPrintN:
