Hmmm, I really like this idea! I'm just not sure about it being the default option, or leaving up to a cargo feature....thoughts?

Thanks!

Edit: It could also be an AppSettings variant...

To enable, ensure `clap` is compiled with `color` cargo feature.

Then in code use `AppSettings::ColoredHelp`

Closes #483

@nabijaczleweli that's the plan...I just haven't had time to work on it lately.
