+attributes to displayed characters.
+Typical examples are bold, blink or colour. ANSI codes are also known as escape codes.
+The set of codes is large, however not all terminal types do support all codes.
 
 Sending these ANSI codes to a simple ASCII only terminal like the one in the Arduino
 IDE might result in garbage. So use with care.

+#### Experimental
+
+look into **ansi.h** for experimental functions and notes.
 
 Version 0.1.6 added a number of experimental function that need more testing.
-Some are working, others are unclear, but the user can uncomment these and
-experiment with them if needed. 
+Some are working with Teraterm, others are unclear of fail.

+- improve documentation

+
+#### Should
+
+- test experimental functions
 - test more terminal programs (Linux mac)
-- write more examples
+- add examples
   - DOS emulator?
+  - experimental section
+
+#### Could
+
 - increase functionality
-  - which codes are useful ?
-- investigate performance. (first step made in 0.1.5 but more possible)
+  - which codes are generic / useful ?
+- investigate performance.
+  - first step made in 0.1.5 but more possible
   - add line buffer in write(c) to improve throughput?
   - need for flush() with line buffer?
   - rewrite functions, replace print() by **\_stream->write()** calls?  (effect on size?)
+  - move static strings to PROGMEM? as defines?
+    roughly ~20 bytes progmem for 4 bytes RAM...
+  - print(char) iso print(string) where possible
