colorbb
-------
This is a simple wrapper written in Perl for making the output from
`b2` command from [Boost.Build](http://http://www.boost.org/build/)
easier to read (more colorful), and errors easier to find
in messy compilations. Initially discussed as part of Boost trac ticket
[#3508 - bjam output in colours](https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/3508).
Port of [colormake](http://bre.klaki.net/programs/colormake/)
by Bjarni R. Einarsson.
Files
-----
- `colorbb.pl` A perl filter, which colorizes `b2` output.
- `colorbb` A shell script, which combines `b2` and `colorbb.pl`
Install
-------
Copy both scripts to location in your `$PATH`.
Usage
-----
Type `colorbb` whenever you'd ordinarily type `b2`:
```console
$ colorbb -j4 toolset=clang cxxflags="-std=c++11" variant=debug test
```
