There warnings were being sent to stdio. I am redirecting them to stderr and with yellow color.

IO.puts("#{file}:#{location_to_string(location)} warning: #{module.format_error(message)}")
message = "#{file}:#{location_to_string(location)} warning: #{module.format_error(message)}"

IO.puts(:stderr, IO.ANSI.format([:yellow, :bright, message]))

The Elixir compiler does not wrap the the whole message in yellow, only the warning part, not in bright, and it ultimately uses another format, so I am not sure we should go for consistency here. We should probably be more consistent with the Erlang compiler warnings and error messages instead.

Well, I was going to mention that, but there are some parts where the whole warning is printed in yellow. So I was going to mention this in an issue itself. I can create the issue, or we can discuss it here.

Those are different warnings emitted by different places, and different on purpose, since they have implications. I would prefer to stay consistent within each library: Erlang, Mix, and Elixir.

I see. So what is the desired format for warnings in the Erlang and Mix library?

Probably the formats that we have right now? :) although I will double check if the Erlang one is still relevant.
