If programs are defaulting to display with colour on terminals, it would make sense to have a global environment option honoured by all programs, telling them to use colour or not.
Given that zypper has an autodetect mode as default, it would seem such a thing already exists,
No. "autodetect" in this case usually means "if output is to a terminal (== interactive), then use colour, else don't". That's how it is for grep etc. and I guess zypper is the same in this regard. -- Stefan Seyfried "For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled." -- Richard Feynman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
