Its official README presents tml as both a Go library and a CLI that reads tagged text and renders terminal color and attributes, making shell and Go output easier to read without manually writing escape sequences. ### Adoption history The supplied source facts show tml packaged in Homebrew and Nix, and as a Debian/Ubuntu Go development package. That adoption pattern reflects a dual identity: a command-line helper for shell users and a library dependency for Go packages. ### How it is used tml is used by piping text containing tags to the binary or by calling the Go package from an application. The README documents foreground colors, background colors, and attributes such as bold, dim, italic, underline, blink, reverse, hidden, and strikethrough. ### Why package nerds care tml is package-nerd useful because it offers a tiny, installable alternative to bespoke ANSI escape handling. It is especially relevant to developers building small CLIs who want readable terminal output code. ### Timeline - 2024: The GitHub project page lists v0.7.0 as the latest release, dated April 24, 2024. - 2026: The batch source facts list Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, and Nix package entries. ### Related projects - Go command-line applications are the primary library audience described by the README. - Shell scripts are the primary standalone-binary audience described by the README. ### Sources - - input.source_facts.package-manager ## Security Notes narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger risk:** green / low - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Source Database Details - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** tml - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Head Version:** HEAD - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** head, stable ## Other Package-Manager Records - Debian apt - golang-github-liamg-tml-dev - 0.7.0-1: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: golang-github-liamg-tml-dev from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | terminal markup language library for Go | https://github.com/liamg/tml - Debian apt - tml - 0.7.0-1+b5: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: tml from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | terminal markup language | https://github.com/liamg/tml - Nix - tml: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/tm/tml/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - Ubuntu apt - golang-github-liamg-tml-dev - 0.6.0-1build1: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: golang-github-liamg-tml-dev from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | terminal markup language library for Go | https://github.com/liamg/tml - Ubuntu apt - tml - 0.6.0-1build1: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: tml from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | terminal markup language | https://github.com/liamg/tml ## Related links - [Source-control packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/source-control-tools/) - Belongs to a source-control command family. - [Terminal utility packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Text processing packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/text-processing-tools/) - Matched text, document, or structured-data processing metadata. - [Developer build packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/developer-build-tools/) - Matched build, compiler, generator, or developer workflow metadata. - [go](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/go/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [ccat](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/ccat/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, go, terminal. - [gat](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/gat/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, go, terminal. - [aha](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/aha/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, terminal. - [amtterm](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/amtterm/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, terminal. - [ansifilter](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/ansifilter/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, terminal. - [clive](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/clive/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, terminal. - [colordiff](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/colordiff/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, terminal. - [colormake](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/colormake/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, terminal. - [heksa](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/heksa/) - Both packages touch the same language runtime or ecosystem.
