Package: glark
Version: 1.7.7-1
Severity: normal

Thanks for maintaining Debian's glark package.

I appreciate how easily it allows one to specify
the color of highlighting.

Please allow multiple and overlapping colors.

For example:

    $ echo mary had a little lamb, its fleece was white as snow | glark -T 
yellow 'had.*lamb'

"had a little lamb" should be yellow, which is
OK. 

However, if the text is passed through glark a
second time to change one of the yellow words to
red, the remaining yellow words are reverted back
to black.

    $ echo mary had a little lamb, its fleece was white as snow | glark -T 
yellow 'had.*lamb' | glark -T red little

Note that "lamb" is erroneously changed from
yellow to black. It should remain yellow.

Thanks,
Kingsley
