    Your patch uses libtextstyle as it was intended. I'm glad the documentation
    was sufficient (except for the 'style_file_name' rvalue).

It is a great library :)
And I didn't add the hyperlinks yet...

    Readline does not parse the prompt string according to any standard.
    Rather it assumes that parts of the prompt string that have no effect on
    the column position are surrounded by \001 ... \002. See [1].

Uoh!  Exactly what I need... thanks :)
