_______________________________________________________
Details:
This patch colour-codes the console output to make errors stand out.
It divides output into five "contexts":
1. User output (default)
2. Errors (red)
3. Warnings (brown)
4. The command line (blue)
5. "system" output, such as the line at which a breakpoint occurs.
(green)
Each context is started by a user-definable ANSI escape sequence, which could
optionally be set to, for example, underline or bold. The sequences are not
limited to ANSI sequences, but other sequences may not be passed through the
"less" pager.
This may be considered eye-candy, but I find that it helps me parse a
screenful of text.
