Enable ANSI support under Windows for nose #476

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Currently there is at least one nose plugin (yanc) that enables coloring for 
nose. 

Initially this plugin worked only on non-Windows but by doing `import 
tendo.ansiterm` you can enable ANSI under Windows for stderr/stdout (redirect 
safe).

The problem is that importing ansiterm from the plugin code is not enought 
because it is too late, nose already did hid tricks with stderr/stdout so 
ansiterm cannot install itself properly.

One solution to this problem would be to add these lines at the beginning of 
nose/__init__.py

try:
    import tendo.ansiterm # enable ANSI support on Windows, needs to be before nose initialization
except:
    pass
