 No, nor will they.  colorized utilities are not particularly welcome.
 (i mean, you can do it, but don't expect such patches to be accepted.)


 But such a systat could live in ports, quite happily.  See
 colorls.

Not all that happily. It will keep getting out of sync with the OS.

OK, point taken.  But if the 'color systat' was a post-processor
it could take the output and add color escape sequences.
That then leaves syncing problems for changes in systat's
output itself, which while happening, isn't that common.

If it were a post-processor that took the systats output and
colorified it, the only change that would render the two out
of sync would be changes to systat's output itself.

Amen to that. When I first started using OpenBSD I immediately noticed
how colorless everything is. With time, I got this realization that I
actually prefer things monochrome. A terminal, OpenBSD and nvi -- what
more could one ask for? :)

Easy:
1. xterm -fg red systat

2. Profit!
