Description

Terminal error output can be visually separated by coloring stderr red through an LD_PRELOAD wrapper. This is useful when debugging commands where normal output and error messages are mixed together.

The tool changes process behavior by preloading a library, so it should be used deliberately in shells or scripts. It is a developer convenience, not a fix for the underlying command errors.
