Here is a patch that implements it. If GCC_COLORS isn't in the environment, the default is still -fdiagnostics-color=never, otherwise it is -fdiagnostics-color=auto (but, as before, if GCC_COLORS is in the environment, but empty, colors aren't shown at all). Bootstrapped/regtested on x86_64-linux and i686-linux, additionally tested on a few testcases with make check when GCC_COLORS was in the environment, and additionally tested with RUNTESTFLAGS='--target_board=unix/-fdiagnostics-color=always dg.exp=pr56*.c' where only the last one showed some (expected) regressions, because that forces over colors even for the tests. Ok for trunk? 2013-04-15 Jakub Jelinek <ja...@redhat.com> * Makefile.in (toplev.o): Depend on diagnostic-color.h. * diagnostic-color.c (should_colorize): Remove _WIN32 version. (colorize_init): Add argument to _WIN32 version. * toplev.c: Include diagnostic-color.h. (process_options): Default to -fdiagnostics-color=auto if GCC_COLORS env var is in the environment. * common.opt (fdiagnostics-color=): Add Var and Init. * doc/invoke.texi (-fdiagnostics-color=): Document that if GCC_COLORS env var is in the environment, the default is auto rather than never. * lib/prune.exp: Add -fdiagnostics-color=never to TEST_ALWAYS_FLAGS. * lib/c-compat.exp (compat-use-alt-compiler, compat_setup_dfp): Handle -fdiagnostics-color=never option similarly to -fno-diagnostics-show-caret option. --- gcc/Makefile.in.jj 2013-04-12 08:13:22.000000000 +0200 +++ gcc/Makefile.in 2013-04-12 08:13:22.000000000 +0200 @@ -2710,7 +2710,7 @@ toplev.o : toplev.c $(CONFIG_H) $(SYSTEM $(OPTS_H) params.def tree-mudflap.h $(TREE_PASS_H) $(GIMPLE_H) \ tree-ssa-alias.h $(PLUGIN_H) realmpfr.h tree-diagnostic.h \ $(TREE_PRETTY_PRINT_H) opts-diagnostic.h $(COMMON_TARGET_H) \ - tsan.h + tsan.h diagnostic-color.h hwint.o : hwint.c $(CONFIG_H) $(SYSTEM_H) $(DIAGNOSTIC_CORE_H) --- gcc/diagnostic-color.c.jj 2013-04-12 08:13:22.000000000 +0200 +++ gcc/diagnostic-color.c 2013-04-15 13:00:41.978114658 +0200 @@ -264,14 +264,8 @@ parse_gcc_colors (void) } #if defined(_WIN32) -static bool -should_colorize (void) -{ - return false; -} - bool -colorize_init (void) +colorize_init (diagnostic_color_rule_t) { return false; } --- gcc/doc/invoke.texi.jj 2013-04-12 08:13:22.000000000 +0200 +++ gcc/doc/invoke.texi 2013-04-15 13:41:42.869556167 +0200 @@ -2963,9 +2963,10 @@ a message which is too long to fit on a @cindex highlight, color, colour @vindex GCC_COLORS @r{environment variable} Use color in diagnostics. @var{WHEN} is @samp{never}, @samp{always}, -or @samp{auto}.
