Combine --color and --vimgrep #890

Open evgeniysharapov opened 8 years ago

evgeniysharapov commented 8 years ago

Is it possible to have --vimgrep and --color options working together ? I would like ag to output and behave like grep (and --vimgrep seems to be doing exactly this) but with --vimgrep options --color and --color-win-ansi are not working. While with grep I can use --color=always

Could you also add --color=auto option, like latest grep? The auto option will highlight the matched word in the line
