I have a custom script with a default output. I'd like to colorize errors, warnings and infos. There's a way to do that in Intellij products (IDEA, PhpStorm, PyCharm)?

It has been a while, but in case you are still interested, there is a new plugin for console colorizing: Grep Console.

Works nicely with Intellij 12.
Make sure you restart IntelliJ after installing the plugin. After you will see the plugin icon in the top left corner (white-red icon).
