  Description     : colour wrapper for text level programs (e.g. ps, stat, xrandr)

cope is a wrapper around programs that output to a terminal, to give
them colour for utility and aesthetics while still keeping them the same
at the text level.

Adding colours on top of text makes it easy to see when something's
amiss. For utility, you can stop hunting through your terminal's scroll
buffer to locate an error when it's clearly highlighted in red, or
locating a network address hidden in dense output when they're marked in
yellow and blue (local and foreign, respectively). As for aesthetics,
even the simplest utility can be brightened up by adding a dash of
colour on top.

cope's scripts are written in Perl, so they're as flexible (and fast) as
Perl allows.
