Hi Benjamin, this is a well known problem with darcs, but I'm surprised to hear that the colorization gets applied with --xml-output! I tried to understand the issue, and it seems stemming from the simplicity of its `escapeXML` function, that basically escapes only '<' and '>' symbols... Tailor offers an option, `replace-badchars`, that "preprocess" the XML output replacing a set of chars with the corrisponding XML notation. This is clearly a very dirty workaround, but it's simple enough. hth, ciao, lele. -- nickname: Lele Gaifax | Quando vivrò di quello che ho pensato ieri real: Emanuele Gaifas | comincerò ad aver paura di chi mi copia.
