Color codes support for printf

Note 1: Your terminal MUST support and have enabled ANSI colors.
Note 2: Same for your ssh client.
Note 3: It works for gsc_printf() function only.
Note 4: It can be disabled by setting 'colored_prints' cvar to 0.

I like it!

Is there any known hook to add text to every printf generated by the server?

I don't think server prints got any colors, except for chat perhaps, but chat can be easily replaced with gsc using callback_playercommand.

Good idea, but all .ssh clients can show colors or only Putty?

I was rather talking about adding current timestamp before printed text.

Proably doable.

Just pipe output of your process to a nodejs file that adds the timestamp for you.

Thanks, your reply inspired me to find out whether the Screen GNU has built-in timestamp or not. It seems that it has.
