Possible to run VsColorOutput64 outside of Visual Studio ? (for terminal and CI)
At my company we often build C++ by using MSVC outside of Visual Studio (in a terminal, by calling the build system b2). We also have MSVC running in GitLab CIs, so it would be interesting to have colored output in those cases.
Your home page and GitHub README do not indicate this is possible, so I guess this feature does not exists yet ?
Would you be interested in merging such a feature ? Any idea if this is feasible / how much work it would be to implement it ?
Happy New Year !
It would have to be a completely different program. VSColorOutput64 utilizes many aspects of the VS environment like classifications. That being said, it's an interesting idea. Essentially, it's just a filter so you prototype one in a bash script and pipe the MSVC output through it.
