Printing colorful characters to the consoleHey guys,
How do I print colorful string to the console ? Would like to implement a cprintf function (for my OS project) that will print its arguments to the console with the desired colors. Example usage will be : CPP / C++ / C Code:
I will parse the arguments somehow, not sure it will be "RED","YELLOW" but probably "R12G10B0" to represent the RGB values. Now, obviously, an ansi-c solution is preferable ... though I'm not sure such exists. suggestions ? Kobi Hikri. __________________

Thank's Paramesh. I'll look into that information, though I'm not using linux gcc I might get some pointers there. Kobi Hikri. __________________
