ANSI colors in Java Swing text fields

Is there any simple way to parse Ansi colors in log files, and use it in text fields in Swing (JTextArea, JTextPAne,...)?

What are ANSI Colours?

In the early days of ANSI escape codes for coloring, the specification allowed programmers (or other users) to write codes for choosing between 8 colors (black, red, green, yellow, blue, magenta, cyan and white).

What is text pane in Java Swing?

public class JTextPane extends JEditorPane. A text component that can be marked up with attributes that are represented graphically. You can find how-to information and examples of using text panes in Using Text Components, a section in The Java Tutorial.

Not tried it, but there's some code here (which needs some formatting to look nice) which claims to be an ANSI colored JTextPane subclass...


For posterity, here is the class run through NetBeans to format the code

import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.text.*;
import java.awt.Color;

public class ColorPane extends JTextPane {
  static final Color D_Black   = Color.getHSBColor( 0.000f, 0.000f, 0.000f );
  static final Color D_Red     = Color.getHSBColor( 0.000f, 1.000f, 0.502f );
  static final Color D_Blue    = Color.getHSBColor( 0.667f, 1.000f, 0.502f );
  static final Color D_Magenta = Color.getHSBColor( 0.833f, 1.000f, 0.502f );
  static final Color D_Green   = Color.getHSBColor( 0.333f, 1.000f, 0.502f );
  static final Color D_Yellow  = Color.getHSBColor( 0.167f, 1.000f, 0.502f );
  static final Color D_Cyan    = Color.getHSBColor( 0.500f, 1.000f, 0.502f );
  static final Color D_White   = Color.getHSBColor( 0.000f, 0.000f, 0.753f );
  static final Color B_Black   = Color.getHSBColor( 0.000f, 0.000f, 0.502f );
