I know this is very off topic, but I have no idea how to find a place where it actually is on topic.. so I'm posting it here.
I wish to be able to run a program (eix-sync/diff-eix) in cron that prints colors (with use of --force-color) and then send that colored output as a mail. 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. Otherwise I'll make it myself (with a very limited range of supported escape sequences). My problem is that I am unable to locate a reference that defines the escape sequences. Guessing by testing with xterm isn't really a optimal way to find out... -- Bo Andresen -- [email protected] mailing list
