Depends on whether your terminal supports ANSI codes. For example, Windows does not, but the Cygwin terminal does. So, from Cygwin I can do >>> a = "\x1b[32m" >>> a '\x1b[32m' >>> print a >>> >>> >>> print b Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> NameError: name 'b' is not defined >>> And everything from the "print a" statement onwards is green. An ANSI code: an escape character (ESC, ASCII value 27, \x1b in hex) followed by the appropriate code sequence: Code: Meaning: \x1b[0m reset; clears all colors and styles (to white on black) \x1b[1m bold on (see below) \x1b[3m italics on \x1b[4m underline on \x1b[7m inverse on; reverses foreground & background colors \x1b[9m strikethrough on \x1b[22m bold off (see below) \x1b[23m italics off \x1b[24m underline off \x1b[27m inverse off \x1b[29m strikethrough off \x1b[30m set foreground color to black \x1b[31m set foreground color to red \x1b[32m set foreground color to green \x1b[33m set foreground color to yellow \x1b[34m set foreground color to blue \x1b[35m set foreground color to magenta (purple) \x1b[36m set foreground color to cyan \x1b[37m set foreground color to white \x1b[39m set foreground color to default (white) \x1b[40m set background color to black \x1b[41m set background color to red \x1b[42m set background color to green \x1b[43m set background color to yellow \x1b[44m set background color to blue \x1b[45m set background color to magenta (purple) \x1b[46m set background color to cyan \x1b[47m set background color to white \x1b[49m set background color to default (black) > > Thanks for your help. > > aurelien -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
