PHPUnit Windows command box nice colors

I have PHPunit installed on a Windows machine. But I don't get nice output on my command line. With the green colours. Someone on the PHPunit mailing list told me I need the ansi.sys driver.

Can someone tell me how to do it so that PHPunit will use the driver?

I tried to add

device=%SystemRoot%\System32\ansi.sys

to my config.nt, but that doesn't give me the desired output. Any ideas?

Windows Console does not use MS-DOS drivers and does not read config.nt. (Those are purely for NTVDM.)
