[ESS] crayon package with ESS?

[Kevin Wright]

I found a simple fix:

options(crayon.enabled=TRUE)

After which, the following example works:
example(green)

Now to see if I can get the colored output from the pillar package...
https://github.com/hadley/pillar

Sort of works. Negative numbers are red, but place-holder zeros are not
being shown in gray.
