No colours in the REPL?

[dwijnand]

It looks to me like there are no more colours in the REPL:

Using -Dscala.color=true doesn't fix it either.

@som-snytt does this ring a bell?

Meanwhile, in Dotty-land:

Started working on this, here's a WIP for Scala EE license checking: scala/scala@4177daa

[szeiger]

Has anyone looked into the actual bug? Possibly related to the changes in JLine initialization (#11654)?

[adriaanm]

Let's first get the jline3 upgrade merged and then see about this.

Guillaume's image link went 404, so I took the liberty of replacing it.

Has anyone looked into the actual bug?

it regressed between 2.13.0-M1 and 2.13.0-M2 and not much else was merged for M2 besides scala/scala#5903 at which Adriaan writes:

Known (temporary) regressions in this PR:

• lost syntax highlighting because it was done in the compiler, while it should be in the shell (UI)

so, apparently a refactoring casualty rather than a “bug” per se

[som-snytt]

Let's first get the jline3 upgrade merged and then see about this.

Obviously Adriaan jinxed it.

lost syntax highlighting

note that "syntax highlighting" is a rather exalted way of describing what was lost here. res0 is one color and Seq[Int] is another color, that's all it is.

[som-snytt]

The release notes will highlight the lost syntax.
