Q:

How do I color my output in the console in Intellij using Grep Console?

This is my first question to StackOverflow:
I'm using IntelliJ IDEA on a Mac. Intellij does not support ANSI coloring of the output (I want to use it for coloring a ludoboard, that i'm representing in the console). So i'm trying to get Grep Console to work - but i don't know how. The only guides I could find, using google, refer to Eclipse or are not specific, so i'm out of IDEAs. 
Can anyone please ELI5?

A:

It is simple, in the settings of Grep Console, just check "Enable ANSI coloring" and in the next run, it will be colored. If not then there is some issue with the console and you should create an issue either on github for the plugin, or on jetbrains issue tracker.
