//
//  Usage:    I created this file to house some names string
//            constants with escape codes for colors in them
//            this makes it much easier for me to do colors.
//            I can still use the codes if I want, but this
//            works too.  try the statement:
//            cout<<BLUE<<"I like cookies"<<endl;
//
//		  You may use this whereever you want, but if you
//		  make any large improvements or whatever, I am
//		  curious, so email 'em my way, please.
