Colorize console output in Intellij products

Question

I have a custom script with a default output. I\'d like to colorize errors, warnings and infos. There\'s a way to do that in Intellij products (IDEA, PhpStorm, PyCharm)?

Answer 1

It's not supported right now (at least not for all the run configuration types). Please vote for:

• IDEA-23976 Add ability to color/highlight console output
• IDEA-69880 Support for colors in console output

Console output of the external tools is fixed to supports ANSI escape sequences to color text.
