Note Submitter: alex dot chesser at gmail dot com ---- Thanks to Glen Cooper for the initial function. I've modified and tweaked to get the structure of being able to specify background and foreground colors. <?php function ec2($text, $fg = null, $bg = null, $d = 'normal') { $colors = array( 'black' => 0, 'red' => 1, 'green' => 2, 'yellow' => 3, 'blue' => 4, 'magenta' => 5, 'cyan' => 6, 'white' => 7); $decoration = array ( 'normal' => 0, 'bold' => 1, 'underline' => 4, 'reverse' => 7); $fg = $fg ? "3{$colors[$fg]}m" : "32m"; $bg = $bg ? "4{$colors[$bg]};" : null; $d = "[{$decoration[$d]};"; echo chr(27)."$d$bg$fg"."$text".chr(27)."[0m"; } $text = "Here is some text\n"; ec2($text, 'black', 'white'); ec2($text, 'blue', 'white', 'underline'); ec2($text, 'green', null, 'bold'); ?> I've based it on the definition found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code I'm sure there is a lot of further improvement that can be done... but it's a step.
