ansi-color

Color is a simple bash shell script that makes it easy to color and format echo'd text. It does this by converting combinations of readable arguments (bold, red, green, underline, etc.) into an ANSI escape sequence that your terminal emulator or console understands.

Usagecolor [ effect ] [ [ lt ] fgcolor ] [ bgcolor ]

color list

color [ -h | --help ]

where:

fgcolor and fgcolor are one of black, red, green, yellow, blue, magenta, cyan or white.

effect can be any of [ nm | normal ], [ bd | bold ], [ ft | faint ], [ it | italic ], [ ul | underline ], [ bk | blink ], [ fb | fastblink ], [ rv | reverse ], [ iv | invisible ]

Preceed the fgcolor with lt to use a light color -- the light or faint intensity effect is not commonly implemented within terminal emulators or consoles.
