I wrapped it, and modified it slightly:

    add -i (Perl version): color header to match the C version

    Both versions of `add -i` indent non-flat lists by five spaces. However
    when using color the C version prints these spaces after the ANSI color
    codes whereas the Perl version prints them before the color codes.
    Change the Perl version to match the C version to allow for introducing
    a test that verifies that both versions produce the exact same output.

Thanks,
Dscho
