Hi all, Does someone have an opinion about this kind of patches? Regardless of implementation details, is output coloring something that people find interesting for OVS? I made the patch because I found it somewhat difficult to read output from |ovs-ofctl dump-flows| (obviously). I do find it easier to read the flows with colors, and it could be extended to support output from other command / tools. But I would like to know if this seems to be an interesting feature to the community before I invest more time into it; so feedback is welcome!
