How to display rails server infos with colors in terminal

I am using rails-3.2.10 with ruby-1.9.3-head, my question is, when I run

rails s

how can I have some color in my bash terminal? I wanted to try with the ruby-debug option, but the ruby-debug gemfile only only can not be installed with 1.9.x yet.

Is there a solution?

I tried this and it works perfect in Rails 3.2.13 and Ruby 2.0.0. You can customize colors and messages.

That solution is also in the form of a gem.

gem 'formatted_rails_logger'

Gem is better formatted but is not colorized. I prefer the first solution.

Regards!

EDIT:

Try gem meta_request and Rails Panel chrome extension. You can see the server log in your browser well organized, showing params, SQL queries, etc.
