Ada package for handling ANSI Standard (X3.64)

Ada package for handling ANSI Standard (X3.64)

I've looked around and haven't been able to find any X3.64 library/bindings for Ada, does anyone know of any? -- I *think* ISO-2022 library/bindings might work, but I'd have to double-check on that.

There's a partial implementation in PragmARC.Ansi_Tty_Control; additional 
sequences are easy to add.

Also GNATCOLL.Terminal will let you output colored text (including on Windows where by default the terminal does not support ANSI escape sequences).

To interpret those sequences, there is a package in GPS (widgets/src/gtkada-terminal.c) that provides a GtkAda text viewer. Perhaps it could be moved outside of GPS (it wasn't tricky to write, but now it is able to interact with vim, for instance, which is not bad)

Thank you. I'll look into it.
