[PATCH/RFC] test-lib: add support for colors without tput

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For platforms that does not have tput we can still perform coloring
by manually emitting the ANSI control codes. If tput is missing from
$PATH, install a replacement function.

The exact strings has been dumped from a machine that has tput, by
piping the output of tput through 'od -c -An'.

I got slightly annoyed that we didn't get colored output from the
tests on Windows, so I decided to fix it.

Hopefully other platforms can benefit from this as well.

I'm not super happy with the condition to enable it. I considered
an environment variable as well, but decided against it because
"make -C t" from the root does not seem to pick up environment
variables configured in the main Makefile.

Thoughts?
