@michael: I have been using `fsl' myself happily for several years now. I also have tried a couple of times to draw attention to its existence on this list (getting the same feedback -- i.e.: none -- as you). but I am sure you are mistaken in your interpretation why this happens. why should anybody be hostile to you (or the tool)? I'm sure the lack of feedback has a much more profane reason: most people just don't care for any wrapper around fossil's CLI (or have their own) but are waiting for native support of the asked-for functionality or are much more interested in the web GUI.

@everybody: `fsl' indeed seems massively under-appreciated. it is very helpful and improves CLI interaction with fossil substantially in my experience (notably the branch where I have further adjusted everything to my own liking ("dresden") ;-)). colorized diff and timeline output and the alias facility alone are worth it (personally I wanted chronological "symbolic" checkin enumeration a la `hg' as well and got it in the above-mentioned branch ...).



I know that every time I mention this I get silently, perhaps even
hostilely, ignored, but really guys, why not just use fsl for your
customization needs?  Colourizing output is in the cookbook:
http://fossil.0branch.com/fsl/wiki?name=Cookbook, along with lots of other nifty tricks like aliasing, adding commands (like workflow-based ones I've
done for my stuff), etc.  It really is a nifty little package and I don't
get the hostility (or at least utter apathy) it generates in the Fossil
community.

I look forward to the "ignore the very existence of this message" that is
traditional each time I bring it up.

For now, if you’re on a unix platform, you can try a wrapper script like
this:



#!/bin/bash

export COLOR_NC='^[[0m'
export COLOR_RED='^[[1;31m’

fossil $* |\
sed -e "s/ERROR/${COLOR_RED}ERROR${COLOR_NC}/g” \
sed -e “s/WARNING/${COLOR_RED}WARNING${COLOR_NC}/g”
