[PATCH] enable colorful traceback conditionally

[Julien Jehannet]

Hello,

Here is a patch about the colorful traceback display.

My use case is to redisplay the provided traceback in my continuous integration
system but the trace is already mangled by ANSI characters.
IMO, we should only provide colorful traceback if we're sure that the current
stderr is a valid TTY (which mimicks the ls --color behaviour that way)

Cordially,

Julien Jehannet (1):
Do not enable colorful traceback if stderr is not a tty

This is especially useful when Windmill is used in automation
environment and you want to obtain default traceback trace.

Julien,

These look like great patches -- is there any chance I can get you to submit them as pull requests on github? makes it easy to track all the contributions.

Adam
