        <p>
          Fabulous is a Python library designed to make the output of
          terminal applications look <em>fabulous</em>.  Fabulous
          allows you to print colors, images, and stylized text to the
          console (without curses.) Fabulous also offers features to
          improve the usability of Python's standard logging system.

      <h2>Examples</h2>

      <p>Seeing is believing.  The screenshot below shows the output
      of the demo module:</p>

      <pre>python -m fabulous.demo</pre>

      <p style="text-align: center; "><img src="/media/img/fabulous-demo.png" /></p>

      <p>If you're really brave, you can try the rotating cube demo:</p>

      <pre>python -m fabulous.rotating_cube</pre>

      <p>You can increase the resolution of images by making the
      terminal text really tiny:</p>

      <pre>python -m fabulous.image obama.jpg</pre>

      <p style="text-align: center; "><img src="/media/img/obama.png" /></p>

      <h2>Lorem Gotham</h2>

      <p>Sometimes you need random verbiage to fill space.  Fabulous
      provides a more interesting alternative to Lorem Ipsum lol:</p>

      <pre>jart@compy:~$ python -m fabulous.gotham

-~*~--~*~--~*~--~*~--~*~--~*~--~*~--~*~--~*~--~*~-
               a deep unholy earth
-~*~--~*~--~*~--~*~--~*~--~*~--~*~--~*~--~*~--~*~-

darker than the a petty agony,
in the death my love shall hang my head
the ghastly condemned and the damned taunt
the dark condemned and the stroke of death follow

no one cares why the condemned flee
oh my eyes! the love!
they sever my head and fall limply with all my madness
sicklier than shadows in swirling dust

in the purgatory my love shall tremble
no one cares why the angels cry out
angrier than corpses in broken ground
oh my essence! the agony!

no one cares why the shadows scour
the frozen damned and the mourners loom
no one cares why the memories beg forgiveness
the dead angels and the angels hover close</pre>
