"Operation not supported by the terminal" on Windows

[tomaka]

Running rustfmt on Windows on some of my repositories results in operation not supported by the terminal. I couldn't find any common trait between all the non-working code bases.

EDIT: For example winit or vulkano doesn't work, but vk-sys works.

Unfortunately even with cargo install --debug rustfmt I couldn't get a proper backtrace:

thread 'main' panicked at 'failed to emit error: operation not supported by the terminal', C:\Users\Pierre\.cargo\registry\src\suiyiyu.us.kg-1ecc6299db9ec823\syntex_errors-0.59.0\src\emitter.rs:1152

After I saw this issue I tried re-installing rustfmt, and this time it's working. I suppose this was the same problem.
