# Unreleased

- Updated top-level docs to include a note about `ColoredString`\'s role in the `Colorize` pipeline as well as link to it to suggest learning more about how to manipulate existing `ColoredString`\'s.
- Changes to `ColoredString`:
  - Expose fields.
  - **[DEPRECATION]:** Deprecated methods `fgcolor`, `bgcolor`, and `style` due to their obsolescence in the face of the exposing of their represented fields.
  - Add methods for clearing specific elements of `fgcolor`, `bgcolor`, and `style`.
  - Change Default implementation to be via derive as Style now implements Default (see changes to Style below).
  - Add implementation of `DerefMut`.
  - Updated docs to reflect the above changes as well as generally greatly expand them.
- Changes to `Style`:
  - Implemented `Default` for `Style` (returns `CLEAR`). This exposes a method by which users can create plain `Style`\'s from scratch.
  - Implemented `From<Styles>` for `Style`. This lets users easily create `Style`\'s from specific styles.
  - Exposed previously private method `add`.
  - Created method `remove` which essentially does the opposite.
  - Added builder-style methods in the vein of `Colorize` to add stylings (e.g. `bold`, `underline`, `italic`, `strikethrough`).
  - Implemented bitwise operators `BitAnd`, `BitOr`, `BitXor`, and `Not` as well as their representative assignment operators. You can also use a `Styles` as an operand for these.
  - Implemented `FromIterator<Styles>` for Style.
- Changes to `Styles`:
  - Implemented bitwise operators `BitAnd`, `BitOr`, `BitXor`, and `Not` which all combine `Styles`\'s and output `Style`\'s. These can also take a `Style` as an operand.
- Added additional testing for all of the above changes.
- Added methods `with_style` and `with_color_and_style` to `Colorize`.
