Dan Peebles 60ecbd7934 More elegant test output
I got sick of trying to find the failures in the sea of debug output, so
we now:
- Hide test output unless it fails
- Sprinkle in some simple color
- Pad results for a more tabular look

If Nix is getting a more friendly user interface, we might as well get
a friendlier developer interface, right? :)

Nix, the purely functional package manager

Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.

To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
