colormake

NAME

colormake - color wrapper for make(1)

SYNOPSIS

colormake [ -f makefile ] [ option ] ... target ...

DESCRIPTION

colormake acts as a wrapper around make(1) to ease reading the output by colorizing it.

OPTIONS

colormake uses the same command line options as make(1).

USAGE

To change a makefile to use colormake, you may change the path at the top which normally reads #!/usr/bin/make to #!/usr/bin/colormake.

Alternately, you may type colormake whenever you would normally type make when compiling programs.

/usr/bin/colormake was formerly named /usr/bin/cmake but had to be renamed because of a name clash.

FILES

The configuration files are Perl scripts included by colormake. The defaults values are (from colormake itself):

 # Some useful color codes, see end of file for more.
 #
 $col_black =        "\033[30m";
 $col_red =          "\033[31m";
 $col_green =        "\033[32m";
 $col_yellow =       "\033[33m";
 $col_blue =         "\033[34m";
 $col_magenta =      "\033[35m";
 $col_cyan =         "\033[36m";
 $col_ltgray =       "\033[37m";
 
 $col_norm =         "\033[00m";
 $col_background =   "\033[07m";
 $col_brighten =     "\033[01m";
 $col_underline =    "\033[04m";
 $col_blink =        "\033[05m";
 
 # Customize colors here...
 #
 $col_default =      $col_ltgray;
 $col_gcc =          $col_magenta . $col_brighten;
 $col_make =         $col_cyan;
 $col_filename =     $col_yellow;
 $col_linenum =      $col_cyan;
 $col_trace =        $col_yellow;
 $col_warning =      $col_green;
 $tag_error =        "";
 $col_error =        $tag_error . $col_yellow . $col_brighten;
 $error_highlight =  $col_brighten;
 

For use with gnome-terminal I have the following configuration in my $HOME/.colormakerc file:

 $col_default =      $col_black;
 $col_gcc =          $col_magenta;
 $col_filename =     $col_blue;
 $col_linenum =      $col_cyan;
 $col_error =        $tag_error . $col_red . $col_brighten;
 

/usr/share/colormake/colormake.rc
