Corrected regex for colour red: i had records of type XXXXX-X and - in the records was colored as well.
colour-mysql-console
Sample config files showing how to colorize linux console mysql client using grc
How to use it
- Install grc (for debian systems:
apt-get install grc
) - Copy both config files into your home directory
- Run mysql client
mysql -u <user> -p -h <hostname>
- Enjoy!
How does it work
Mysql client supports using predefined pager for data output.
So we can set grcat (Generic Colouriser) for processing mysql output.
grcat reads supplied config file, parces output according to regexp's and adds colours.
grc manual can be founded via man grc
