Hi, I use your excelent module colorize-stderr. I discovered, that colorizing STDERR output is not working in PowerShell. The same code works fine in cmd.exe. Do you have any idea why? Please find attached the example source code and a screenshot. Thank you and best regards Ralph -- *Ralph Schuler* OK ISAF 2020 - *Ressort EDV/Homepage* +41 79 799 75 84 Bahnhofstrasse 95 6423 Seewen ralph.schuler@isaf2020.ch www.isaf2020.ch

I thought I tried it once and it worked on PowerShell as long as you use the console version of PowerShell (not ISE) and you also load Win32::Console::ANSI. But just now I tried it and the ANSI escape codes are not printed but are also not interpreted. This still works on PowerShell: % perl -MWin32::Console::ANSI -MTerm::ANSIColor -E "say color('yellow'),'hi',color('reset')" so I suspect the issue *might* lie in PerlIO::via::ANSIColor, but sorry I don't have time to investigate further at the moment.
