"I like strawberries, therefore everyone likes strawberries" is a strange way of thinking, but maybe it helps if you simply know that I don't like strawberries.

I simply find terminal programs that generate colour distracting.
- iforgotpassword 9y agoDistracting from what? Are you just looking at the colors and nothing else as soon as there are any? I think colors are a great way to enhance output, as it is like a third dimension to formatting. Needless to say there might be tools that use them in silly ways, but for example having errors in red immediately can signal something bad happened.

Yes. > I think colors are a great way to enhance output, as it is like a third dimension to formatting. I don't. I view them as a OOB marker that causes the coloured content to effectively jump the queue into my brain. > having errors in red immediately can signal something bad happened. As a specific counter-example: I'm often interested in the log output that occurred right before something bad happened, so having errors in red is exactly what I don't want.
