+        <para>The AnsiColorLogger adds color to the standard Phing output by prefixing and suffixing ANSI color code
+            escape sequences to it. It is just an extension of DefaultLogger and hence provides all features that

+        <para>If used with the -logfile option, the output file will contain all the necessary escape codes to display

+        <para>This is designed to work on terminals that support ANSI color codes.</para>
+        <para>If the user wishes to override the default colors with custom ones, a file containing zero or more of the
+            custom color key-value pairs must be created. The recognized keys and their default values are shown below:</para>

+            as an argument using the -D option to the php command that invokes the Phing application.
