Sometimes, neatness counts

If you are trying to puzzle out a stack trace, pick a critical line of text out of a long stream of console output, or compare two streams of binary data, a little bit of formatting can go a long way.

That's what clj-commons/pretty is for. It adds support for pretty output where it counts:

• Readable output for exceptions
• ANSI font and background color support
• Hex dump of binary data
• Hex dump of binary deltas
• Formatting data into columns

Pretty is compatible with Clojure 1.10 and above.

Parts of Pretty can be used with Babashka, such as the clj-commons.ansi namespace; however, Babashka runs in an interpreter and its approach to exceptions is incompatible with JVM exceptions.
