There are, in fact, two entries in the ROADMAP about this that I  
added when using cogito in another project.  Cogito automatically  
pages output internally (if the output is directed to a terminal) and  
has an option to enable colored output for log and diff.  These two  
features were very nice, and hence why I put them in that file ;)
