I run Grails 2.3.6 on Windows from the normal command line: "grails run-app"
By default, Grails likes to use different colors for different types of text output. That's fine, but I really don't like the Groovy exceptions that appear in dark red . I use background black , which makes them difficult to read.
Cygwin is good in that when Grails works, I don’t see any colors at all (even exceptions), but Cygwin has another problem: FileWatcher does not detect the changes I made to the Groovy source code, so hot deployments do not work.
