I'm doing a backtrace and it looks much better in gdb.

Are you using a gdb extension? I don't get any colors in gdb.

flip111 commented 4 years ago

I'm not using a gdb extension as far as i know.

bjorn3 commented 4 years ago

Color support seems to be introduced in gdb 8.3. I am still at 8.2.

flip111 commented 4 years ago

I am indeed using version 8.3
