Hi All, With the apparition of colorification of gcc diag message, it sounds like the color are hard coded to who knows terminals. I Know that I can use option/env to remove color, yet when non prepared for it, it crash my terminal ( that is not vt100 or whatever xterm is). My TERM var is properly setup up though. Is that expected behavior? I know that colorisation is a rampant disease with ls, grep etc, with default color barely readable imposing painfull customisation time at monent you would like to spend your time to other duties :) Would'nt be possible to have color only if some ENV are already set, i.e gcc could detect in the env that the user is a *COLOR* officionado and colorify then, insteand of imposing regression in both terminal non xterm, and regression on diag parser that discover with horror this new escape sequence in the output :) Any advise appreciated :) Cheers, Phi
