Hi Guillaume, Thanks a lot for this patch. I gave more thought to this, and now, I'm not sure that it's a good idea anymore. My problems are the following: - how to use colors usefully (to reinforce the message, or make it easier to visually parse the output of hcih?) - how to deal with non-black backgrounds? Also, I tried to find examples of applications making good use of colors to make their output more readable, and I couldn't really find any. So, I don't know what to do about that. i'm inclined to think that this was just a bad idea originally. Sorry :( Lucas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
