Color enforcement

[ArmorDarks]

We've encountered an issue during spawning processes with JSPM 0.17-beta. For example, if try to use grunt-shell JSPM output ends up completely mono-coloric:

After reading sindresorhus/grunt-shell#21 and this topic, if I'm not mistaken, it seems that the only way to bypass this issue is to enforce color with --color flag.

As far as I know, JSPM doesn't support --color flag. At least, I didn't find it in docs. But, strangly enough it works:

But for some reason it thinks that --color isn't a flag, but output directory:

I then tried to specify output file explicitly, but JSPM simply concatenating both path into single wrong path, resulting in error:

'jspm build "source/scripts/main.js" "test.js"', without --color works as expected, but, once again, no color in piped through grunt-shell output:

I'm quite confused. Am I missing something, or JSPM indeed mistakenly takes flag for output path? Is there a support of --color in JSPM?

A "--color" flag would be nice but you could use child_process package directly and set stdio to "inherit". E.g.:

const ps = require('child_process');

ps.execSync('jspm inspect', {stdio: 'inherit'});

Thanks for reply!

Hm, I'm not sure, but it seems to be impossible to control that parameter via grunt-shell.
