Yes defining a function in your awk script seems appropriate to avoid being redundant. Also thanks for the raw mode in less, that is great ! Works with my solution too by piping the output.

EDIT: See also: stackoverflow.com/questions/981601/… What about sed command? something like .. sed /INFO/s/^/<begin_color>/ and something with /$/<end_color>. Where begin would be \033[...` and end will be \033[0m.
