Description

Is it possible to use the same default "integrated terminal" instead of a non-default, non-rich terminal? I noticed that when I build, it uses a terminal that doesn't support colorization, bold, or clickable links. One of the most important things when looking at build logs, is determining if there are errors—and when you find an error, you want to be able to click on the file/line to take you to the problem.

Desired terminal: my default

Actual terminal: Shell integration: No
