ansispan function adapted from mmalecki/ansispan
The easiest way to see how slow the old way was is to create a very large traceback (e.g. max recursion), which bring everything to a screeching halt (even future page loads, if the output is saved). Now a max recursion error draws in a second or two.

Strip useless ANSI escape codes in notebook
ANSI color escape codes get handled specially by the notebook, but other kinds of codes just get printed out. Strip these codes out of the notebook output.

The previous expression was matching both the beginning and the end of the line,
which would end up swallowing the next match,
ultimately matching every other URL in the string.
This removes the end-of-line check, so it will match every URL.
The wrapURLs function to make URLs easier to identify does not seem to have been necessary,
and has thus been removed.
