AI Thread Summary
It is possible to print characters of different colors in the Linux command line by using terminal codes. To achieve this, you need to send the appropriate color code before each character you want to color differently. A resource for further information on this method is available at linuxfocus.org.

Hey guys,

Is it possible to print characters of different colors to the command line in Linux? I would like to print a word, for example, with one letter a different color. Is this possible? From what I've been able to gather on Google, it is possible to change to font color of all characters. I have not found anything on individual characters.

Thanks!

Dear Peeps I have posted a few questions about programing on this sectio of the PF forum. I want to ask you veterans how you folks learn program in assembly and about computer architecture for the x86 family. In addition to finish learning C, I am also reading the book From bits to Gates to C and Beyond. In the book, it uses the mini LC3 assembly language. I also have books on assembly programming and computer architecture. The few famous ones i have are Computer Organization and...
I have a quick questions. I am going through a book on C programming on my own. Afterwards, I plan to go through something call data structures and algorithms on my own also in C. I also need to learn C++, Matlab and for personal interest Haskell. For the two topic of data structures and algorithms, I understand there are standard ones across all programming languages. After learning it through C, what would be the biggest issue when trying to implement the same data...
