- Show HN: Colorgrep
- colorgrep: a small cli that reads from stdin (or a file), and applies regex patterns which, when matched, are highlighted in different colors. I personally, use it for highlighting key messages in logs while debugging programs.
- I just made colorgrep, which applies multiple greps to an input, and highlights matches in different colors.
