Font for error code in compiler output

[RichM]

My error messages in Segger studio are messed up (shown below). Everything else is fine. Can I change the font or something?

[m[K'[01m[Kdev[m[K' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean '[01m[Kdiv[m[K'?

Thanks

Hi,

As stated in the case awneil links to, this is caused by the introduction of color coding in the error output in the latest versions of NCS. The symbols are the color coding escape sequences. Segger is aware of this issue and they are working on it.

Best regards,

Marte

so is it a special feature just for NCS, or is it a general feature of SES ?

I have only seen it in the Nordic Edition of SES so far. The release notes for the general edition of SES does not mention this color coding anywhere, and I did not see it when testing the latest version now. From what I have been told, the color coding was introduced in the error output from the tools behind SES. This is how the color coding looks if you select "Output" instead of "Tasks":
