Subject: [PATCH] fix: Correct ANSI color rendering in help display
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Changed show_help() from heredoc to echo -e statements to properly
render color escape codes. Help menu now displays with proper colors
instead of literal escape sequences.
