How does vim's syntax highlighting help here?

I agree this was, what in German is called "Voll daneben" :)

The only way I know is to read such files with "less -r". If you know how to force vim to interpret escape sequences --- please explain how to do it.

If you want to remove all escape codes, you could use:

:%s/<1b>[[0-9;]*m//g

I personally do not use colored output, but the question is interesting. I also do not use Micheles scripts, because of pbuilder - it is too heavy for me. But I used various parts to setup my build process, which is continious work in progress :)
