Target name should be "console" not "coloredConsole' else this won't work with NLog, at least not with any recent version.

@depeter please fork this and fix it if you wish, and then ping me to delete my version.
I haven't used .NET in the last few years, so I have no idea how to configure NLog nowadays.

@clupasq that's ok, I just added it as a comment for future people using your snippet as I found it very useful! Thanks
