+Printing rich text to the console
+---------------------------------
+
+Using :ref:`print_rich<class_@GlobalScope_method_print_rich>`, you can print
+rich text to the editor Output panel and standard output (visible when the user
+runs the project from a terminal). This works by converting the BBCode to
+`ANSI escape codes <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code>`__ that the
+terminal understands.
+
+In the editor output, all BBCode tags are recognized as usual. In the terminal
+output, only a subset of BBCode tags will work, as documented in the linked
+``print_rich()`` method description above. In the terminal, the colors will look
+different depending on the user's theme, while colors in the editor will use the
+same colors as they would in the project.
+
+.. note::
+
+    To print error and warning messages that can be filtered by type in the
+    editor Output panel, use
+    :ref:`@GlobalScope.push_error<class_@GlobalScope_method_push_error>` and
+    :ref:`@GlobalScope.push_warning<class_@GlobalScope_method_push_warning>`
+    instead of ``print_rich()``.
