By "replacing", I meant "taking the steps necessary so the output of
make shown to the user is colorised". That is exactly what your
suggestion does. It seems to me a pointless step to force users to
figure out how to do this additional step (properly!), when there is a
package management system that is able to install everything that is
needed to make it work out-of-the-box. On the other hand, in this
particular case, I guess that if you know what 'make' is you should know
what 'alias' is.
In any case, my .bashrc contains, which works with or without colormake
installed.
# enable color support of ls and also add handy aliases
if [ "$TERM" != "dumb" ] && [ -x /usr/bin/dircolors ]; then
eval "`dircolors -b`"
alias ls='ls --color=auto'
alias dir='ls --color=auto --format=vertical'
alias vdir='ls --color=auto --format=long'
alias grep='grep --color=auto'
alias fgrep='fgrep --color=auto'
alias egrep='egrep --color=auto'
if [ -x /usr/bin/colormake ]; then
alias make='colormake'
fi
if [ -x /usr/bin/colordiff ]; then
alias diff='colordiff'
fi
fi
So, this bug does not affect me anymore, and I personally do not care
much if you close/reject it (and bug 30734).
