Eelco Dolstra e84c265645 Run builds in a pseudo-terminal
This allows many programs (e.g. gcc, clang, cmake) to print colorized
log output (assuming $TERM is set to a value like "xterm").

There are other ways to get colors, in particular setting
CLICOLOR_FORCE, but they're less widely supported and can break
programs that parse tool output.

Nix, the purely functional package manager

Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.

To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
