# Colours in log output
Laminar's frontend supports ANSI colours using the [ansi-up library](https://github.com/drudru/ansi_up). Unfortunately, there is no standard way of convincing applications to output colours when not connected to a tty. It is recommended to set [CLICOLOR_FORCE=1](https://bixense.com/clicolors/) in Laminar's [global environment file](#Environment-variables), plus any of the following environment variables that may be relevant (please submit more):
* git: `GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS='color.status=always' 'color.ui=always'`
* google test: `GTEST_COLOR=1`
* grep: `GREP_OPTIONS=--color=always`
More intrusive options for other common tools which do not support enabling colours via environment variable:
* gcc and clang: Add `-fdiagnostics-color=always` to compile flags
