Feature Request
If a compilation/execution in performed in the Terminal window the output is colorized. But for the compilation the output in "Output" is not. Interactive, colorized text in "Output" will be great.

Research direction
Start by tracing how compilation output reaches the VS Code Output window and compare it with the colorized execution path in the Terminal window. Done means compilation output in Output renders interactive colors consistently; use the existing output behavior and related extension tests, if present, to verify it.
