Use carriage return (\r) character to return to the begin of the line. Use \e[K to clear all characters from the cursor position to the end of the line. Example: … Read more
You have to resort to dirty tricks: #!/bin/bash # based on a script from http://invisible-island.net/xterm/xterm.faq.html exec < /dev/tty oldstty=$(stty -g) stty raw -echo min 0 # on my system, the following line can be replaced by the line below it echo -en “\033[6n” > /dev/tty # tput u7 > /dev/tty # when TERM=xterm (and relatives) … Read more
You could use code below (require ‘ansi-color) (defun display-ansi-colors () (interactive) (ansi-color-apply-on-region (point-min) (point-max))) Then you can execute display-ansi-colors via M-x, via a key-binding of your choosing, or via some programmatic condition (maybe your log files have a extension or name that matches some regexp) If you want to do this with read-only buffers (log … Read more
For windows, calling os.system(“”) makes the ANSI escape sequence get processed correctly: import os os.system(“”) # enables ansi escape characters in terminal COLOR = { “HEADER”: “\033[95m”, “BLUE”: “\033[94m”, “GREEN”: “\033[92m”, “RED”: “\033[91m”, “ENDC”: “\033[0m”, } print(COLOR[“GREEN”], “Testing Green!!”, COLOR[“ENDC”])
I am now using this PS1 with good effect: green=$(tput setaf 2) blue=$(tput setaf 4) bold=$(tput bold) reset=$(tput sgr0) PS1=”\[$green$bold\]\h\[$reset\]:\[$blue$bold\]\w\[$reset\]\$ ” Scrolling through my command history appears to handle line wraps now. However in the meantime since this question was asked I have also updated my OS X to 10.6.3

The regex you should be using is /[\u001b\u009b][[()#;?]*(?:[0-9]{1,4}(?:;[0-9]{0,4})*)?[0-9A-ORZcf-nqry=><]/g This matches most of the ANSI escape codes, beyond just colors, including the extended VT100 codes, archaic/proprietary printer codes, etc. Note that the \u001b in the above regex may not work for your particular library (even though it should); check out my answer to a similar question … Read more
