when i run “rake spec” i get color, if have --colour in spec.opts.
when i run autotest the output isn’t displayed(i can tell the tests have
run thanks to snarl), unless i get rid of --colour. however, now the
output is plain-jane white!
adding require ‘autotest/redgreen’ to .autotest seems to have no effect.
when i run "ruby -S script/spec -O spec/spec.opts
spec/models/user_spec.rb(which is what is echoed when i run autotest), i
also get color only if --colour is in spec.opts
any thoughts would be appreciated

For the Windows console process and display correctly the color,
special care should be taken from the normal ANSi escape code and
redirected to some Win32API functions.
Doing that, autotest is no longer capable of capturing the
STDOUT/STDERR of the child process and thus, not displaying the
result.
I’m aware that win32console author is working on workaround this
limitation, but no other news.

ok, thank you! i’ll stop beating my head against it then and keep an eye
out on the updates of win32console.

A colleague of mine says he got his working, but I have yet to see it. I
will ask him on Monday and report back with what I find.
