How to colorise console output?

[siliconsenthil]

It would be really great to colorise the different child directories to make it pleasant to eye? Any ideas?

Hi @siliconsenthil

Yeah, I like colored things, too ;) But I'm not good at selecting the right colors and targets, so a more specific suggestion on how/what to colorize is welcome.

We can show all the directories in some color (say green). That should be a good starting point.

For diff and all other commands, we can use the same colors git uses.
