make print_with_color not default to bold take 2 #18628

KristofferC · 2016-09-22T11:54:20Z

This is take 2 of #18480.

First commit introduces an ENV var for changing the color errors are printed in.
Second commit remove the default boldness in print_with_color. Instead a kwarg bold is added which determines if the result should be printed in bold. For backwards compatability, the :bold key is still left in the text_colors dict. This also sets the default color for errors and warnings to light_red instead of red because on most terminals this is the color it used to be when printing red + bold. This is also the reason for the first commit because for example Jupyter notebook does not support the light versions of the color so IJulia can if it wants set the ENV variable to just be red. Edit: However, 16 color support in notebook is merged, just not in release: Re-factor ANSI color handling jupyter/notebook#1230
Third commit hooks up the test framework to use corresponding ENV variables in a few places. The reason for this is that the blue used is not very visible on many terminals (same problem as with the previous info messages) and it is good to keep the users chosen "colorscheme".

Note, this is not meant to change any input color / boldness, output color / boldness, repl color / boldness etc and not change any of the possible settings that are available now.

test/misc.jl

+let
+    old_have_color = Base.have_color
+    try
+        eval(Base, :(have_color = true))


Is this acceptable?

isn't something similar done in a withenv in a different test?

this was fine for now, better to test things. we can think about making color not a global elsewhere.

hopefully can restore these from reflog or old commits?

+answer_color() = text_colors[:bold] * text_colors[repl_color("JULIA_ANSWER_COLOR", default_color_answer)]


should we consider moving these functions to the REPL module instead of Base ?

Perhaps. On the other hand it makes sense to have all the ENV color stuff in the same place.

how much of it is more general-purpose beyond REPL usage?

IJulia uses colors for infos, errors and warnings now and thus indirectly uses the corresponding ENV vars.

+    a keyword argument `bold::Bool` which determines whether to print in bold or not.
+    On some terminals, printing a color in non bold results in slightly darker colors being printed than when printing in bold.
+    Therefore, light versions of the colors are now supported.
+    For the available colors see the help entry on `print_with_color.

how does that work?

I could either call it gray or keep the light_COLOR pattern like I did here.

I don't think I've ever heard gray called light black, but I guess it works. throw a comment in?
