Description

Current default outputs color characters that eclispe console does not understand.
I'm trying to integrate nodeunit into an eclispe plugin and all the reporters produce console output that is not readable by a human in the console and difficult to parse by an SWT app

Any plain text output would be useful

Here is a screen shot of the problem http://portawiki.abnoctus.com/view/eclipse-nodeunit-snapshot.png

Research direction

Start by locating nodeunit's default reporters and the code that emits colored console output. Reproduce the output in an Eclipse console or SWT integration, then verify that a plain-text reporter is readable by humans and straightforward for the application to parse.
