CocoaLumberjack works by default in AppCode, but colours are not supported out of the box. To enable colours: 1. Install the 'Grep Console' plugin (http://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/7125) 2. Enable ANSI colouring (Settings > Grep Console) 3. Go to Run > Edit configurations... 4. Add TERM=color to the 'Environment variables' (edit them by clicking on the ellipsis) 5. `[[DDTTYLogger sharedInstance] setColorsEnabled:YES];` Kudos to @davidlawson for this documentation.
