Re: Colourising command line

I'm a professional programmer so that's entirely feasible, thank you for letting me know.

I haven't looked into how to accomplish the task, it would be a waste of effort were there an existing plugin. All I've done is search for such a plugin, found nothing, then consulted this mailing list as a final check.

Thanks,

David
