[Feature Request] colored output from Terminal (example git diff)

[GETandSELECT]

When I copy and paste git diff output (colored output), the colors get lost in Quiver.

You can use markdown highlighting code block:

    ```diff
    diff --git a/lzw/__init__.py b/lzw/__init__.py
    index 24dc835..21cc9dc 100644
    --- a/lzw/__init__.py
    +++ b/lzw/__init__.py
    @@ -109,7 +109,7 @@ class ByteEncoder(object):

         >>> decoded = b"".join(decoding)
         >>> decoded == bigstr
    -    True
    +    OTrue

Renders to:
```diff
diff --git a/lzw/__init__.py b/lzw/__init__.py

I would like to see this just for general terminal output as well. Something where it would keep the formatting, and colouring taken directly from Terminal.

Hi @GETandSELECT & @notoriousturtle — I tried this with Terminal app, and found that all formatting is kept when pasting into text cell (even black background).

With iTerm, however, the result is plain text.

With Markdown, you can also use ```sh for basic syntax coloring.
