hilite is a small command line program that applies a color to the stderr output of another program. This is useful in, for instance, large compilation processes where there is a lot of text chatter that would otherwise obscure legitimate error messages.

Usage example:

$ hilite ls $ hilite -- ls --color $ hilite --style cyan -- make --my --make --options
