stripping escape sequences from build logs
 

All,

I find the included escape sequences to be annoying when I am reading a
build log.

Is there a way to strip these?

Thanks,

William

I had that problem — you can find my script that does that (as well as
other stuff) at https://github.com/gentoo/tboxanalysis

I think the 'easy' way is to view them using 'less'. Not sure if it
will work for you.

Porthole's terminal strips most of them, processes some. It also does
message filtering and highlighting for warnings, errors, and an emerge
process summary. The filtered messages are also double click-able to
bring you to the exact spot in the log. Making it easy to find the
errors. The filtered messages can also be easily configured (well, if
you can do python reg expressions ;). It can load build logs for
viewing, "Actions" ==> "Open Emerge Log" menu items in portholes main
window. It also has dynamic automatic line wrapping, so resizing the
window reformats the viewed text.

P.S. It did message filtering long before portage got the capability.
