### `"#hex"` Format

The "#hex" format is one way you typically see colors represented. It's simply the `#` character followed by 6 characters. The first two are for `red`, the second two are for `green`, and the third two are for `blue`. It's important that this string be surrounded in quotes, otherwise Nushell thinks it's a commented out string.

Example: The primary `red` color is `"#ff0000"` or `"#FF0000"`. Upper and lower case in letters shouldn't make a difference.

This `"#hex"` format allows us to specify 24-bit truecolor tones to different parts of Nushell.

### Full `"#hex"` Format

The `full "#hex"` format is a take on the `"#hex"` format but allows one to specify the foreground, background, and attributes in one line.

Example: `{ fg: "#ff0000" bg: "#0000ff" attr: b }`

- foreground of red in "#hex" format
- background of blue in "#hex" format
- attribute of bold abbreviated

### Closure

Note: Closures are only executed for table output. They do not work in other contexts like for `shape_` configurations, when printing a value directly, or as a value in a list.

For example:

```nu
$env.config.color_config.filesize = {|x| if $x == 0b { 'dark_gray' } else if $x < 1mb { 'cyan' } else { 'blue' } }
$env.config.color_config.bool = {|x| if $x { 'green' } else { 'light_red' } }
{a:true,b:false,c:0mb,d:0.5mb,e:10mib}
```

prints

```nu
╭───┬───────────╮
│ a │ true      │
│ b │ false     │
│ c │ 0 B       │
│ d │ 488.3 KiB │
│ e │ 10.0 MiB  │
╰───┴───────────╯
```

with a green `true`, a light red `false`, a dark grey `0 B`, a cyan `488.3 KiB`, and a blue `10.0 MiB`.
