3508,bjam output in colours,mloskot <mateusz@…>,Vladimir Prus,"I think it would be very useful if bjam prints output to stdout in colours to help to distinguish at least information messages, warnings and errors.

All these tools help programmers to avoid ''nystagmus'' issues while analysing compiler output :-)

As a proof of concept, I attached [http://mateusz.loskot.net/?p=465 colorbb'' script a rough port of the colormake] to work with bjam + GCC toolset.",Feature Requests,new,Boost 1.47.0,build,Boost Development Trunk,Cosmetic,,"coloring, output, colormake, colorgcc",jan boehme@… flast@…
