Thanks wisecracker for your reply,the actual requirement in our project is that we have a java program that prints text to the terminal when manually run and red when printed in all instances is an error,our requirement is that we need to send an email whenever red is outputted.
Now this check is being done manually we are planning to convert to cron tab and divert this output to a file and mail in cases only when file has anything in red color.But the problem here is when I redirect I am lossing the colors

In short the question is how do the retain color when text is redirected to a file.

ls -l --color|less -R would retain color

but how to I retain color when

someunixcommandwhich prints colored text>filename

NAME
Color::Library::Color - Color entry for a Color::Library color dictionary METHODS
$id = $color->id Returns the id of the color A color id is in the format of <dictionary_id:color_name>, e.g. svg:aliceblue x11:bisque2 nbs-iscc-f:chromeyellow.66 vaccc:darkspringyellow $name = $color->name Returns the name of the color, e.g. aliceblue bisque2 chromeyellow darkspringyellow $title = $color->title Returns the title of the color, e.g. aliceblue bisque2 chrome yellow Dark Spring-Yellow $dictionary = $color->dictionary Returns the Color::Library::Dictionary object that the color belongs to $hex = $color->hex Returns the hex value of the color, e.g. ff08ff eed5b7 eaa221 669900 Note that $hex does NOT include the leading #, for that use $color->html, $color->css, or $color->svg $html = $color->html $css = $color->css $svg = $color->svg Returns the hex value of the color with a leading #, suitable for use in HTML, CSS, or SVG documents, e.g. #ff08ff #eed5b7 #eaa221 #669900 $value = $color->value Returns the numeric value of the color, e.g. 15792383 15652279 15376929 6723840 ($r, $g, $b) = $color->rgb Returns r, g, and b values of the color as a 3 element list (list context), e.g. (240, 248, 255) $rgb = $color->rgb Returns r, g, and b values of the color in a 3 element array (scalar context), e.g. [ 240, 248, 255 ] $color = Color::Library::Color->new( id => $id, name => $name, title => $title, value => $value ) $color = Color::Library::Color->new( { id => $id, name => $name, title => $title, value => $value } ) $color = Color::Library::Color->new( [[ $id, $name, $title, $rgb, $hex, $value ]] ) Returns a new Color::Library::Color object representing the specified color You probably don't want/need to call this yourself FUNCTIONS $hex = Color::Library::Color::rgb2hex( $rgb ) $hex = Color::Library::Color::rgb2hex( $r, $g, $b ) Converts an rgb value to its hex representation $value = Color::Library::Color::rgb2value( $rgb ) $value = Color::Library::Color::rgb2value( $r, $g, $b ) Converts an rgb value to its numeric representation $rgb = Color::Library::Color::value2rgb( $value ) ($r, $g, $b) = Color::Library::Color::value2rgb( $value ) Converts a numeric color value to its rgb representation ($r, $g, $b) = Color::Library::Color::parse_rgb_color( $hex ) ($r, $g, $b) = Color::Library::Color::parse_rgb_color( $value ) Makes a best effort to convert a hex or numeric color value to its rgb representation perl v5.14.2 2011-12-07 Color::Library::Color(3pm)
