[opensuse] Colorized output, echo via xargs.

[Sylvester Lykkehus]

Hi,

Just playing around a bit with different colors in shell scripts, I've 
come across a problem colorings an output parsed through xargs.

I'm sure it's just a question of escaping the string correctly.

echo -e '\E32mTest'
Prints the word Test in green.

While
echo Test > test.txt
cat test.txt | xargs -i echo -e '\E32m{}'
prints \E32mTest

Any ideas ?
