\section set_color set_color - set the terminal color
\subsection set_color-synopsis Synopsis
<tt>set_color [-v --version] [-h --help] [-b --background COLOR] [COLOR]</tt>
\subsection set_color-description Description
Change the foreground and/or background color of the terminal.
COLOR is one of black, red, green, brown, yellow, blue, magenta,
purple, cyan, white and normal.
- \c -b, \c --background Set the background color
- \c -c, \c --print-colors Prints a list of all valid color names
- \c -h, \c --help Display help message and exit
- \c -o, \c --bold Set bold or extra bright mode
- \c -u, \c --underline Set underlined mode
- \c -v, \c --version Display version and exit
Calling <tt>set_color normal</tt> will set the terminal color to
whatever is the default color of the terminal.
Some terminals use the --bold escape sequence to switch to a brighter
color set. On such terminals, <code>set_color white</code> will result
in a grey font color, while <code>set_color --bold white</code> will
result in a white font color.
Not all terminal emulators support all these features. This is not a
bug in set_color but a missing feature in the terminal emulator.
