Yes, it's great, added to my .bashrc. One thing that has
bugged me for ages, and now it's even more obvious, is the
right setting (probably language/locale) to avoid this <B4>
wherever there it's meant to be a single quote...

 ie; -> It<B4>s

The <B4> has a nice blue background now. Any clues to force
a single quote instead ? My $LANG is en_AU.UTF-8.
