Michael Osipov commented on MNG-3507:
-------------------------------------
[~ggregory], the question is, of course, how should this look like? Everyone
has different expectations. While I do like
[this|https://gist.github.com/dant3/7444827] solution, others don't. Moreover,
that would mean swap SLF4J Simple for something more heavyweight like Logback
with Jansi. Is that intended by default? Logback libs add another 700 kB, and
Jansi 115 kB. Quite a lot. Maybe a patched SLF4J Simple would suffice.
> ANSI Color logging for improved output visibility.

> I think Andrew Williams did some work under Plexus sandbox to enable color
> logging. There also a color logger available in Ant.
