DESCRIPTION
       This package provides higher level control sequences for more complex shapes.

API
   INTROSPECTION
       ::term::ansi::code::macros::names
              This command is for introspection. It returns as its result a list containing the names of all
              attribute commands.

       ::term::ansi::code::macros::import ?ns? ?arg...?
              This command imports some or all attribute commands into the namespace ns. This is by  default
              the  namespace macros. Note that this is relative namespace name, placing the imported command
              into a child of the current namespace. By default all commands are imported, this  can  howver
              be restricted by listing the names of the wanted commands after the namespace argument.


   SEQUENCES
       ::term::ansi::code::macros::menu menu
              The  description  of  a menu is converted into a formatted rectangular block of text, with the
              menu command characters highlighted using bold red text.  The result is returned as the result
              of the command.

              The description, menu, is a dictionary mapping from menu label to command character.

       ::term::ansi::code::macros::frame string
              The paragraph of text contained in the string is padded with spaces at the right margin, after
              normalizing internal tabs, and then put into a frame  made  of  box-graphics.  The  result  is
              returned as the result of the command.
