Call isatty() if your output device appears not to be a tty when it won't 
colourise the text.

Check with:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
	if (!isatty(fileno(stdout))) {
		printf("I'm not a TTY :(\n");
		return 1;
	}

	printf("I'm a TTY :)\n");
	return 0;
}
