show escape sequences in terminal?
Is there a way to let the terminal show the raw escape sequence? (e.g. those used to control color)
I came across this UNIX.SE question, and want to filter "red" output ( Filter output of command by color)
However, the commands in the answers do not work for my output (e.g. the red in git status
for "Untracked files"). They do work for the examples there echo -e '33[00;31mtest33[00m' | grep --color=none '[[:cntrl:]]'
. Filtering with grep --color=none '[[:cntrl:]]'
works on my output but also shows text with other colors.
I guess the red I see must be a different red than e[31m
.
Is there a way to let terminal output raw escape sequences? (so that I can use the right sequence to filter the specific red color I see)
(bash, Ubuntu 18.04)
terminal
