MD013 - Line length
Tags: line_length
Aliases: line-length Parameters: linelength, codeblocks, tables (number; default 80, boolean; default true)
This rule is triggered when there are lines that are longer than the configured line length (default: 80 characters). To fix this, split the line up into multiple lines.
This rule has an exception where there is no whitespace beyond the configured line length. This allows you to still include items such as long URLs without being forced to break them in the middle.
You also have the option to exclude this rule for code blocks and tables. To
do this, set the code_blocks
and/or tables
parameters to false.
Code blocks are included in this rule by default since it is often a requirement for document readability, and tentatively compatible with code rules. Still, some languages do not lend themselves to short lines.

In order to use these characters, you can create a function that takes a string and returns the string with the appropriate color code added to it, using **template literals**. The special characters need to be added to the string output, and for background colors, you need to add a special character (`\x1b[0m`) to **reset the background color** at the end of the string.

You've probably seen colored text in the console before, and you might have wondered how to do it yourself. In most environments, there are **special Unicode characters** that you can use to print text in color in the console. This can be useful for adding emphasis to certain parts of your output, or for making your logs easier to read.
