Re: [feature request] Colouring matches in --result=grep outputs

[Shigio YAMAGUCHI]

Hi all,

I have committed a piece of code which realizes the coloring function.

Please try the following command line:

$ global --color=always -x main

It supports the followings:

o --color option which similar to grep(1)

o GREP_COLOR environment variable

The --color option is effective to the following commands:

        <default command>

        -f command

        -g command

        -I command

        -P command

These are not supported this time:

o -C, --colour option

o GREP_COLORS environment variable

The followings are considered to be another matters.

o Options like -E(--extended-regexp), -N(--project), -m(--match-case)

o GLOBAL_OPTIONS (GTAGS_OPTIONS, HTAGS_OPTIONS)

They need to be discussed, respectively. I will write RFCs

for them.

I myself wrote the code. In fact, I couldn't make full use of Jason's

code by my procedural defect (I apologized to him). However, his code

was a big help, and showed the way to which I should go. I believe that

I have realized a thing which is almost the same function as his patch.

Thank you Jason!

Welcome to bug report.
