Description

Color codes inside the console have stopped working for a while on my machine. I very well remember this
working correctly before, and it does work with other server platforms (e.g. Spigot).

Tested with commit `be008ff`. Perhaps this has been broken since a commit that upgraded the logging library, such as #859.

I am using Windows 10.

This is what I see in in CMD:

Similarly, in PowerShell:
