https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=198919 Bug ID: 198919 Summary: new port: misc/stderred Library that will display STDERR output in red Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: freebsd-ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: braakvaak@aol.com Created attachment 154817 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=154817&action=edit shar file stderred hooks on write() and a family of stream functions (fwrite, fprintf, error...) from libc in order to colorize all stderr output that goest to terminal, thus making it distinguishable from stdout. Basically it wraps text that goes to file with descriptor "2" with proper ANSI escape codes making text red. It's implemented as a shared library and doesn't require recompilation of existing binaries thanks to preload/insert feature of dynamic linkers.
