Copy and paste colored console output from Mac os

Tools needed: Terminal, Safari/TextEdit

Sometimes you want to show your colored console output to someone else. If you copy and paste it out, the color info is gone. 

On Mac os Yosemite, I found that you can use Terminal and Safari to make this happen. Get your console output from Terminal, and paste it to Safari (Gmail), then you can send out. 

Note that you have to use Terminal, use iTerm or other third party console may not work. Other editor  or browser (e.g. Google chrome) may not work either. 

The clue is using Mac os Built in apps.
