Like most developers, I use the terminal… a lot.
Because I like colours and am in the terminal more often than not, I have developed somewhat of an obsession for colourizing all the things I can. I have created two scripts which I find myself using with some consistency. They are alternative, ANSI colour friendly implementations of watch and cat. I have created a gist on github for each of them.
I hope you find them as helpful as I do!
