As long as it's a flag, the TTY detection is not so important. If someone can
figure out that part, we could make it the default and do away with the flag.

Instead of a flag, wouldn't it be better to just do what the unixy tools do and
automatically colorize if-and-only-if it detects it's outputting to an
interactive shell? (Not sure whether that's doable on Windows though.)

I've done this for myself as a filter program:

Seems like something that should or could be done in RDMD, especially since
I've seen a few colorizing console libraries implemented in D.

It's a good idea.

Note to implementer: You'd have to check to see if the output stream is a file
or a tty, and not do the colorizing for the file.

Using a postprocessor seems fragile/ambiguous. 

Come to think of it probably the most flexible solution would be to have a flag
to output with markup (json for example), that can later be used by tools to
print as html/terminal color codes/etc.
