Pale coloured font on white background console unreadable about fusesoc HOT 3 CLOSED

That doesn't look very nice. Not sure how to do this properly, but there must be other projects out there with the same issues. It might also be worth taking a look at the termcolor python package.

I would suggest dropping the "boldface" attribute (1) from COLOR_SEQ, since doing so makes the lines at least somewhat readable:
