Description
Make programs think their stdout is a tty / terminal
Long description
`stdoutisatty command` makes `command` think their stdout is a terminal, even if it is actually being piped into another program (e.g. `less`). This is most useful for preserving user-friendly, colored outputs. For example, `stdoutisatty ls --color=auto | less` will always show colored output, despite being piped into a pager.
