Now, on an Unix without native lib, not having a native lib does not make ANSI color failure: it just doesn't give isatty() function to try to detect stdout redirection, which even when available does not detect well when redirection are used. Yes, from a pure logical perspective, have more native libs would be a plus. But this is not so critical. Yes, JAnsi maintainers don't apply every PR immediately and it's sometime hard to get their attention: hey, that reminds me some recent complaints on our ML. JAnsi works well currently for Maven and for a lot of others: if you find a better alternative, don't hesitate to point us to it.
