ASCII color support

[ngoctnq]

Currently I'm piping a program's output into a text file and then let log.io track it. However, it gives [0M-type of characters in the stream and not format them (like it would have if I were using less -r). Is the support for this functionality?

[msmathers]

This is not currently supported... I'll add this as a feature request. I'm not too familiar with all ASCII color escape codes, would implementing support for the following table be sufficient? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code#Colors

I'd say that's sufficient. If we go with stuff like screen clearing, that'll open a huge can of worm.

I'm also interested in coloring the output

const ScreenMessage: React.FC = ({
message,
messageFilter
}) => {
return (

{messageFilter && _parseMessageParts(message, messageFilter).map((part, i) =>
<span key={i} className={part.highlight ? 'highlight' : ''}>

{part.text}


)}
{!messageFilter && {message}}

)
}

@sguilly you should make this a pull request. Any instructions on how to use your changes? I got the main code working, but don't know how to add your edits. My experience is limited with node/npm.
