add colors to grunt-js output

Question

I've setup grunt to do tdd in windows for my delphi developments. I have a watch task that runs msbuild and then runs my tests console application (written in delphi). When I run the test application directly in the windows command prompt it outputs coloured text when grunt does it the colours disappears. I tried running the test task both with exec and spawn but the output using grunt.js is always without colors. Any Ideas on how to fix that?

Answer 1

adding

opts : {stdio : 'inherit'}

to my spawn task fixed the problem
