+## Colored diagnostics
+As an experimental feature, diagnostics are now colored, controlled by the
+`--color` and `--style` options.
+
+To use them, install the libtextstyle library before configuring Bison. It
+is available from https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/gettext/, for instance
+https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/gettext/libtextstyle-0.8.tar.gz.
+
+The option --color supports the following arguments:
+- always, yes: Enable colors.
+- never, no: Disable colors.
+- auto, tty (default): Enable colors if the output device is a tty.
+
+To customize the styles, create a CSS file, say `bison-bw.css`, similar to
+
+ /* bison-bw.css */
+ .warning { }
+ .error { font-weight: 800; text-decoration: underline; }
+ .note { }
+
+then invoke bison with `--style=bison-bw.css`, or set the `BISON_STYLE`
+environment variable to `bison-bw.css`.
