copied!<p><strong>UPDATE:</strong> I have sorted out the issue. It has to do with ANT giving escape sequences that while appropriate for a linux xterm, are NOT correctly interpreted by Mac OS X. It is possible to filter the ANT output to convert these sequences and restore colorized output.</p> <p>The moral of the story is that this wrapper script will achieve colorized output:</p> <pre> <b># cat /workspace/SDK/bin/ant-wrapper.sh</b> /usr/bin/ant -logger org.apache.tools.ant.listener.AnsiColorLogger "$@" | perl -pe 's/(?&lt=\e\[)2;//g' <b># alias ant='/workspace/SDK/bin/ant-wrapper.sh' </b> <b># ant publish </b> (output has lots of pretty colors; well, maybe not so pretty, more like an easter egg) </pre> <p><strong>Original Post (and debugging steps):</strong></p> <p>I'm having similar issues with regard to AnsiColorLogger not displaying colors at all. I'm not sure what the author means by "[output appears] for a second then it just disappears". That seems like a strange problem to occur on the Terminal.</p> <p>My Box:</p> <pre> # uname -a Darwin Dave-Dopsons-MacBook-Pro.local 10.7.0 Darwin Kernel Version 10.7.0: Sat Jan 29 15:17:16 PST 2011; root:xnu-1504.9.37~1/RELEASE_I386 i386 </pre> <p>This is the ANT Logger we are using: <a href="http://ant.apache.org/manual/listeners.html#AnsiColorLogger">http://ant.apache.org/manual/listeners.html#AnsiColorLogger</a></p> <p>Here's a related forum post (tried the advice given, to no avail): <a href="http://ant.1045680.n5.nabble.com/Macosx-and-AnsiColorLogger-td1355310.html">http://ant.1045680.n5.nabble.com/Macosx-and-AnsiColorLogger-td1355310.html</a></p> <p>I did "ant | less", and I DO see escape sequences, but still no colors: </p> <pre> Buildfile: /workspace/Words/words_blackberry/build.xml ESC[2;32m publish:ESC[m </pre> <p><strike>Still blocked on this, and would love advice if anyone has gotten it to work on OSX</strike></p> <p>GOT IT!</p> <p>So here's the output of colorized ls:</p> <pre> # CLICOLOR_FORCE=exfxcxdxbxegedabagacad ls -lGF | less total 112 -rw-r--r-- 1 ddopson admin 6511 May 29 12:41 build.xml drwxr-xr-x 6 ddopson admin 204 May 28 23:59 ESC[34meclipse-binESC[mESC[m/ lrwxr-xr-x 1 ddopson admin 35 May 23 21:24 ESC[35mfilesESC[mESC[m@ -> ../artwork/output/blackberry/files/ lrwxr-xr-x 1 ddopson admin 36 May 23 21:20 ESC[35mimagesESC[mESC[m@ -> ../artwork/output/blackberry/images/ </pre> <p>Notice how the escape sequences are subtly different; they don't have the '2;' like ANT did...</p> <p>So to test this theory: ant -logger org.apache.tools.ant.listener.AnsiColorLogger publish | sed 's/2;//g' </p> <p>... and the output is COLORIZED!
