Colorful make compilation output When I used Ubuntu, I remember that the output of make/gcc/g++ had nice colors, which were particularly helpful when needing to quickly identify errors (they were red).

Is there a way to enable colors for make et. al. on OS X as well?
make on OS X does not appear to support color out-of-the-box, and recompiling is painful.

However, I found this make wrapper which does the job.
