['Red', EC.red('red text'), EC.bg.red('red bg')],
['Green', EC.green('green text'), EC.bg.green('green text')]

};
CG(data);
// silent output and remove color
data.options = {
silent: true
};
const lines = CG(data);
console.log(EC.remove(lines.join('\n')));
```

With special character:
- Unresolved: some special characters has unexpected width, especially on different output terminals (depends on fonts)
"columns": ["Special", "Character"],
"rows": [
["Chinese,中文", "12【标,点。】"],
["あいアイサてつろ", "☆√✔×✘❤♬"],
["㈀ㅏ㉡ㅎㅉㅃㅈㅂ", "①⑵⒊Ⅳ❺ʊəts"],

getCharLength: (char) => {
return eaw.length(char);
}
},
