Feature Request: Color Highlighting in Build Output #299

Open CELLTH opened 8 months ago

CELLTH commented 8 months ago

It'd be very nice to support colors in the build output independently of the editor colors. It'll help with reading through compiler errors and warnings. I think either a custom highlighting solution based on keyword detection or supporting ANSI color escape codes would work.

We have this now for jai, but for other compilers this will have to be implemented separately, because we need a reliable way to detect code snippets in the build output.

You could help us with this by providing several examples in which you would like code highlighting.
