== Coloring Output ==

To color your shell script output, you will need to echo out an escape sequence that looks something like {{code|\033[$color1;$color2;$stylem}}.

You can specify one or more colors or styles by delimiting the colors or styles with a semicolon and end the list with a 'm'.

Color is given as:

{| class="wikitable"
! Color !! Foreground !! Background
|-
| Black || 30 || 40
|-
| Red || 31 || 41
|-
| Green || 32 || 42
|-
| Yellow || 33 || 43
|-
| blue || 34 || 44
|-
| Magenta || 35 || 45
|-
| Cyan || 36 || 46
|-
| White || 37 || 47
|}

Style is given by:

{| class="wikitable"
! Style !! Code
|-
| Normal || 0
|-
| Bold || 1
|-
| Underline || 4
|}

=== Examples ===
Try these examples by echoing them in a terminal.

To print something as underlined green:
{{highlight|lang=terminal|code=
$ echo "\033[33;4mYellow Underlined Text\033[0m"
}}

To print something underlined, red, with a blue background:
{{highlight|lang=terminal|code=
$ echo "\033[31;44;4mRed Underlined with a Blue Background Text\033[0m"
}}

To print the above without the underline, just remove the '4' style
{{highlight|lang=terminal|code=
$ echo "\033[31;44mRed with a Blue Background Text\033[0m"
}}
