Re: Colored kernel messages on serial console

I=E2=80=99m not always one to defend =E2=80=9Cthe UNIX philosophy,=E2=80=9D=
 but in this case root could redirect console output and route it =
through a filter that applies arbitrary escape codes to it via =
pattern-matching.

Of course, that won=E2=80=99t catch things logged between boot and the =
filter=E2=80=99s setup; maybe if that=E2=80=99s *really* needed, some =
BPF or module hooks would work for it without imposing a ton of overhead =
(especially on kernels not using it).
