I have had proposed that color codes should not be output if the output |
| 8 |
stream is not tty (like ls(1) does with the setting --color=auto). This |
| 9 |
is default with emerge now. |

I'm still one of the persons working with non-ANSI terminals and |
| 12 |
expecting colorful output under no circumstances. Maybe that's |
| 13 |
old-fashioned, but maybe the use of ls(1) (e.g.) itself is rather |
| 14 |
old-fashioned. ;-> |
