Task Description

Task Description
Reported by DanC
https://outlyer.net/2014-05-18:vcs-1_13_2-released/comment-page-1/#comment-20390:
A great utilty... I’ve been using this for a couple of years now (it runs every night as a cron job).
I’ve been looking at cleaning up the output that cron captures from each of its commands and stores as a system email.
I’ve enabled the -Wc option to prevent coloured output. Mostly this works except near the start of the script when it says:
Settings from /home/danc/.vcs/vcs.conf:
bg_heading
This is still shown in green. Bug?
Currently the colour only stops after the option is found.
