It's always good to colorize the output of the command line. Give a custom style. In this case, you can use color codes on strings to color the output. One very important thing to note is that these colors will only work on the command line and not in your browser.
Let's see the syntax:
echo "\e[1;37;42mHello World\e[0m\n";
The above command returns "Hello World" in white font and green background. You can see that the first part of the string, \e, is the escape character to open and close the string.
[0;31;42m, this is what sets the color (0;31) and background (42). This should be followed by the text that we are coloring.
In Skater I use it to style when the -help
command is required.
There are few colors, but enough to give style to outings. I share the list of colors. See you soon!
