Change color or font when executing a script
I'm writing a simple menu script and I would like to output the whole script using background color: black AND foreground color:white. Meaning if the ssh terminal of a user is set to green for example, it will change to my desired color when menu script is executed. Once the script is exited, it will use his default color attributes. thanks

LEARN ABOUT PHP
ncurses_init_pair
NCURSES_INIT_PAIR(3) 1 NCURSES_INIT_PAIR(3)
ncurses_init_pair - Define a color pair
SYNOPSIS
int ncurses_init_pair (int $pair, int $fg, int $bg)
DESCRIPTION
Defines or redefines the given color pair to have the given foreground and background colors. If the color pair was previously initial-
ized, the screen is refreshed and all occurrences of it are changed to reflect the new definition.
Color capabilities must be initialized using ncurses_start_color(3) before calling this function. The first color pair (color pair 0) is
assumed to be white on black by default, but can be changed using ncurses_assume_default_colors(3).
PARAMETERS
o $pair
- The number of the color pair to define.
o $fg
- The foreground color for the color pair. May be one of the pre-defined colors or one defined by ncurses_init_color(3) if the
terminal has color changing capabilities.
o $bg
- The background color for the color pair. May be one of the pre-defined colors or one defined by ncurses_init_color(3) if the
terminal has color changing capabilities.
RETURN VALUES
Returns -1 if the function was successful, and 0 if ncurses or color support were not initialized.
NOTES
Note that color changing capabilities are not required for defining color pairs of pre-existing colors, but only for changing definitions
(red, green, and blue components) of colors themselves per ncurses_init_color(3).
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Writing a string with a specified color to the screen
<?php
ncurses_init();
// If the terminal supports colors, initialize and set active color
if (ncurses_has_colors()) {
ncurses_start_color();
ncurses_init_pair(1, NCURSES_COLOR_YELLOW, NCURSES_COLOR_BLUE);
ncurses_color_set(1);
}
// Write a string at specified location
ncurses_mvaddstr(10, 10, "Hello world! Yellow on blue text!");
// Flush output to screen
ncurses_refresh();
ncurses_end();
?>
