Fun fact! There should be color support in there already, since we took the inspect util from Node: https://github.com/saghul/txiki.js/blob/84267a1612e47ec655fdf2b4afa1ff826d6b08b1/src/js/polyfills/console-util.js#L116
It's just not enabled by default.
console.log is a very cumbersome thing, e.g. in some scenarios it may be better to output part of the information, otherwise it will be cluttered with a lot of useless information

Agreed. Note that the above is the REPL, which doesn't use console.log for its output, even though they both end up sending their output to tjs.stdout
.
Will it support colored console.log output? Using different colors for different types will make it easier to distinguish

If someone wants to use a styled console, they can use the following code to override the original implementation
