            Bug ID: 20510
           Summary: stap -L colorizes non-tty stdout
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: translator
          Assignee: systemtap at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: jistone at redhat dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

Commit 1ad27a4b0b6aa for PR14787 added colorize() calls to stap -L output. 
That coloring is predicated on color_errors = isatty(STDERR_FILENO), which is
fine for error messages that do go on stderr, but -L writes to stdout.

So if you run a command like "stap -L 'syscall.*' >syscall.list", stderr is
still a tty, and that file will include a bunch of colorization escapes.
