Python colorama not working with input?

Question

Finally, colorama works today, and it works great when printing lines, but I got a general error that everyone seems to get when I tried to use colorama with input.

Here is my code:

launch = input(Fore.GREEN + "Launch attack?(Y/N): ")

On my system, input() works with colors if you add

 import sphinx.quickstart 

to your module.

So here is the complete code.

 from colorama import Fore import colorama import sphinx.quickstart colorama.init() launch = input(Fore.GREEN + "Launch attack? (Y/N): ") 

(This leads to two questions:

• Why does this not work in the first place?
• What is the reason? - Someone might want to dive into the sphinx source code.)

<i> NB if you run python via winpty from Git Bash , install convert .

 colorama.init(convert=True) 

Otherwise, you will not get the color with current versions.
