Having just seen both utilities, colout looks very useful while grc looks like a PITA. I don't want to write configs for every adhoc command.


Yeah, grc is not for ad hoc utilities. It's meant to work with tools you use frequently, like make, diff, gcc, ping etc. where the syntax is known.


It should not be too difficult to use the same config files in colout, btw.
