title: Is there a way to get colored text in GitHubflavored Markdown?
body: <p>I need to document a library on GitHub that output colored text in the terminal.</p>
  <p>I've tried both span <code>&lt;style=&quot;color:red&quot;&gt;</code> and <code>&lt;font color=&quot;red&quot;&gt;</code>, but it seems to strip out both tags.</p>
  <p>Is the only way to do this is with images of colored text?</p>
  <hr/>
  <p>I ended up adding screenshots to Git and using image links with GitHub relative URLs.</p>
