+*** The color-gcc wrapper

+This wrapper colorizes the error messages from gcc. By default
XEmacs +does not interpret the escape sequences used to generate
colors, +resulting in a cluttered, hard-to-read buffer. You can
remove or +defeat the wrapper, or you may get good results from the
ansi-color.el +library:

It might be worth pointing out that color output in emacs can be supressed by making the
following change to /etc/colorgccrc:
---------------
$ diff -u /tmp/colorgccrc /etc/colorgccrc
--- /tmp/colorgccrc Tue Dec 26 02:17:46 2000
+++ /etc/colorgccrc Tue Dec 26 02:15:48 2000

# Don't do color if our terminal type ($TERM) is one of these.
# (List all terminal types on one line, seperated by whitespace.)
-nocolor: dumb
+nocolor: dumb emacs
# Text between ` and ' is usually source code.
srcColor: bold cyan
---------------
Better yet would be for Mandrake to just set this by default.
