Hi,

I don't know if you have discussed this before, any chance to see
color support to pacman's output? i really loved the way pacman does
the download when adding "ilovecandy" to /etc/pacman.conf :D, so I
tried to add some colors but since the string length is checked in
pm_fprintf function, it may break the message, I tried doing it in
another way (by simply adding an extra char *color to pm_fprintf
function) but I am not a C++ programer so i failed specially about
adding strings together (color + str + CLEAR) to fprintf, anyone
interresting in doing it ?

Regards,
Wael Nasreddine
