 - ANSI coloring output from `bunyan` CLI tool (for the default output mode/style).
   Also add the '--color' option to force coloring if the output stream is not
-  a TTY, e.g. `cat my.log | bunyan --color | less -R`.
-- Add 'level' field to log record before custom fields for that record. This just
-  means that the raw record JSON will show the 'level' field earlier, which is a bit
-  nicer for raw reading.
+  a TTY, e.g. `cat my.log | bunyan --color | less -R`. Use `--no-color` to
+  disable coloring, e.g. if your terminal doesn't support ANSI codes.
