Re: [gentoo-user] [OT] Terminal formatting and colors escape sequences
Just in case somebody wonders what I'm talking about here is an example (^[ is an escape character): ^[[32;01m*^[[0m Running emerge --sync ... ^[[A^[[73G ^[[34;01m[ ^[[32;01mok^[[34;01m ]^[[0m ^[[32;01m*^[[0m Running update-eix ... ^[[A^[[73G ^[[34;01m[ ^[[32;01mok^[[34;01m ]^[[0m ^[[32;01m = green ^[[0m = black ^[[73G = right justify ^[[34;01m = blue ^[[A = ? -- Bo Andresen -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

In order to get colors in a mail a have to use html. If there exist a program that is capable of converting escape sequences used for formatting and coloring an xterm to html I would love to know about it. I'd say, the Perl module HTML::FromANSI should do what you want (available from cpan). It brings a script, ansi2html, that provides access from the command line. Note that you might have to play with the TERM environment variable. -hwh -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Unfortunately I don't know Perl but I think I'll have a look at it anyway... Thanks. -- Bo Andresen -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Does anyone know of I way in which to force emerge to show colors when piping the output to a file? I really could use a tip. -- Bo Andresen -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
