"github_readme_excerpt": "Colormake\n---------\n\nThis is a simple wrapper for making the output from make easier to read\n(more colorful), and errors easier to find in messy compilations. It was\ninspired by Micheal T. Babcock\u0027s excellent logcolorize program.\n\n\nFiles\n-----\n\n colormake.pl A perl filter, which colorizes make\u0027s output.\n colormake A shell script, which combines make and colormake.pl\n\nThe rest is documentation.\n\n\nInstallation\n------------\n\n cp -fa colormake.pl colormake colormake-short clmake clmake-short /usr/bin/\n\n\nUsage\n-----\n\nType `colormake` whenever you\u0027d ordinarily type `make`.\n\nType `clmake` for the same effect, but piped through `less`.\n\nThe `colormake-short` and `clmake-short` versions of the commands will\nmassage the output so lines do not wrap, but are otherwise the same.\n\n\nContributing patches\n--------------------\n\nThis project now lives on Github: \u003chttps://github.com/pagekite/Colormake\u003e\n\nFeel free to fork it and send pull requests.\n\n\nAuthor\n------\n\nBjarni R.
