Print Color-Coded SVN Status
May 23rd, 09I’ve been having difficulty in reading SVN status, which tells you which files in a project have been modified, added, or having a conflict with other developer’s changes. Status code in front of each line alone doesn’t help me quickly identifying one status code from another so I wrote a script to color code the lines with different colors according to their statuses. If you’re having the same issue, feel free to use the code below 
#!/usr/bin/python

# add more status & color codes

"\?": "32", # green

# build a paramter list
parameters = "";
for i in range(1, sys.argv.__len__()):
parameters += sys.argv[i] + " ";

os.popen("echo \"" + line + "\"", 'w')
