 Getting started
 ---------------
 
-To highlight using colors:
-
-.. literalinclude:: snippets/getting_started_1.py
-
-.. figure:: snippets/getting_started_1.png
-
-
-This will emit ansi escapes into the string: one when starting a color, another
-to reset the color back to the default:
-
-.. code:: python
-
-    >>> from ansicolor import green
-
-    >>> green("green")
-    '\x1b[0;0;32mgreen\x1b[0;0m'
-
-
-If I want to be able to pass a color as an argument I can also use the
-``colorize`` function:
-
-.. code:: python
-
-    from ansicolor import Colors
-    from ansicolor import colorize
-
-    print(colorize("I'm blue", Colors.Blue))
-
-
-I can also apply color on a portion of a string:
-
-.. code:: python
-
-    from ansicolor import Colors
-    from ansicolor import wrap_string
-
-    print(wrap_string("I'm blue, said the policeman.", 8, Colors.Blue))
-
-
-Sometimes I may have a string that contains markup and I'll want to do something
-with it that concerns only the text, so I can strip the markup:
-
-.. code:: python
-
-    >>> from ansicolor import red
-    >>> from ansicolor import strip_escapes
-    >>> from ansicolor import yellow
-
-    >>> message = "My favorite colors are %s and %s" % (yellow("yellow"), red("red"))
-    >>> print("The length of this string is not: %d" % len(message))
-    The length of this string is not: 67
-    >>> print("The length of this string is: %d" % len(strip_escapes(message)))
-    The length of this string is: 37
