Act version

0.2.77

Feature description

Currently, act does not handle GitHub Actions workflow commands like ::warning, ::info, and ::error. These commands are printed as plain text, making it harder to distinguish them from regular output.

Proposed Enhancement:
Replace these commands with more visually distinct symbols or styles for a clearer console experience. For example:

  • ::warning → ⚠️
  • ::info → ℹ️
  • ::error →

This small change would significantly improve the readability of logs and align act more closely with the GitHub Actions experience.
