REQ: Color Codes

· 2 messages · 8 Mar 1997 - 9 Mar 1997
After recieving a number of emails about color codes (thanks for trying to help) I find that I need to be more clear than I was. I am looking to colorize a ascii file so that color would show up when the file is displayed using the cat program. I have been told that this can be done, but I have since lost track of the person who told me that. -Erik Jerde jer...@cems.umn.edu -- I Havn't Lost My Mind -- It's backed up on tape somewhere...

This is not easy to do by hand so I recommend that you use a program like TheDraw to colorize the files. Remember to save your files like ANSI, not ASCII.
