I’m running rspec from within mvim with :!rspec spec/lib, however if I include –color flag, I get
[32m.[0m[32m.[0m[32m.[0m[32m.[0m[32m.[0m[32m.[0m[32m.[0m
Finished in 0.01708 seconds

I tried --tty flag which works with rstakeout, but no help.
Unfortunately this is not possible.
MacVim does it’s own graphics rendering, which is not implemented as/via a terminal emulator, so it has no concept of ANSI color codes etc. I believe I remember the author of MacVim commenting that this will never be supported, which is a shame.
When I was using MacVim, I’d run
rspec --no-colorto at least avoid the escape sequences cluttering the output.I’ve since switched to vim (running inside tmux in full-screen iTerm2) and it’s nice to get back the color output of console commands.
