Hi All,
See color messages in Maven 3.4.0-SNAPSHOT made me think of the following.
Right now, with Jansi on the CP, I can say:
import static org.fusesource.jansi.Ansi.*;
import static org.fusesource.jansi.Ansi.Color.*;
...
logger.info(ansi().fg(RED).a("Hello").fg(CYAN).a(" World").reset());
and the right thing happens on the console.
If I also have a file appender, I get the escape codes in the file, which I
do not think most people would want.
The question is, how can we make it simple for users to have their cake and
eat it too?
With a special Message implementation?
Thoughts?
Thank you,
Gary
