I'm working on a simple cli script and wanted to add some color to the following code: rl.question('Enter destination path: ', function(answer) { // ... }); rl.write('/home/' + user + '/bin'); Which displays in the terminal: Enter destination path: /home/jmcateer/bin_ But I wanted to add some color to the prompt I did the following: rl.question('\u001b[1;36mEnter destination path:\u001b[0m ', function(answer) { }); rl.write('/home/' + user + '/bin'); And the command line prompt ended up displaying: Enter destination path: /home/jmcateer/bin_ It works but there's a huge amount of white space I

How could one interact with a locally long-running Common Lisp image, possibly daemonized, from the command line? I know it is possible to run a Common Lisp function from a Terminal command prompt , I am also aware of this . I would need to do a similar thing, but with a local, already long-running Common Lisp image, being able to poll available functions from the CLI or shell scripts. Is there a way to do that from a CLI, for example calling a function from a bash script, and receiving back whatever the function returns? I though one could, for example, create a primitive web service, perhaps

Is there a way to include a file in project from command line in vs2012 ? The reason why I'm asking is because is very frustrating to include any new file I add to the project folder whenever I use some other IDE ( like ST3 ) or when I save a file from Photoshop, etc. I'm using Grunt for doing a lot of minifying, concatenation, running ngmin on my angular scripts, etc. There's a grunt-shell plugin that allows grunt tasks to run shell commands ( I'm already using it for unlocking locked files by TFS ). So I was thinking that I could create a task that would do the include in project for me for

Let's say I'm in my root directory, and I have a User folder that I can cd into. In my default Mac terminal, I can just type cd U + tab , and it autocompletes to cd Users/ . How do I get this to work in iTerm2? It used to work just fine in iTerm2, but I must have changed a setting somewhere that disabled it, and I cannot figure out how to get it back. Autocomplete in iTerm2 activates by pressing cmd + ; You can install bash-completion package to autocomplete by Tab key. Install bash-completion with brew In Iterm 2 , you can activate Autocomplete by pressing command ⌘ + ; 来源： https:/
