Yes, that was a direct result of that forum post I alluded to.
It isn't something he (or most anyone else, in my experience)
really cares about, but he felt if he did it then many Walter
wouldn't waste any more time on it.
In fact, I find the colors distracting. Pretty? Certainly.
But helpful? Not really, at least not for me. I'd rather
stick with just B&W. But all things considered, it's a pretty
minor issue, and one that's not worth the time to complain
about. (Haha, and look what I just did. :-P)

BTW run.dlang.io supports DMD's colorized error messages since a
while too, e.g.

If anyone minds, send a PR to
