Colored compiler error output
Does anyone know if kotlinc support colored compiler errors, or if there's an open issue regarding it?
They are entirely red and hard to read as-is.
Here's an example of what I had in mind (and also showing there's precedence for this)

Problem is Gradle strips ANSI control sequences from tooling output
That doesn't mean it wouldn't be worthwhile, just that the main build tool wouldn't show it

Kotlinc output is already colored (without gradle)

Looks like our toolchain is removing things then (we use Buck). I'll look into this.
Thanks a lot for sharing it
