colors in BASH, doubt with script
I was trying to see all combinations of foreground and background colors in BASH.

This works fine for me,
echo -e '\E[37;46m TEXT'

but when I tried the below script, the variables i and j do not expand.

#!/bin/sh

for i in `seq 30 37` # foreground
do
for j in `seq 40 47` #background
do
echo -e '\E[$i;$jm TEXT'
tput sgr0 # Reset text attributes to normal without clear
done
done



I tried

echo -e "\E[$i;$jm TEXT"
echo -e '\E["'"$i"'";"'"$j"'"m TEXT'

no luck, please help.

drop_text_search_configuration

DROP TEXT SEARCH 
CONFIGURATION(7)			  PostgreSQL 9.2.7 Documentation			 DROP TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION(7)

NAME

       DROP_TEXT_SEARCH_CONFIGURATION - remove a text search configuration

SYNOPSIS

       DROP TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION [ IF EXISTS ] name [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]

DESCRIPTION

       DROP TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION drops an existing text search configuration. To execute this command you must be the owner of the
       configuration.

PARAMETERS

       IF EXISTS
	   Do not throw an error if the text search configuration does not exist. A notice is issued in this case.

       name
	   The name (optionally schema-qualified) of an existing text search configuration.

       CASCADE
	   Automatically drop objects that depend on the text search configuration.

       RESTRICT
	   Refuse to drop the text search configuration if any objects depend on it. This is the default.

EXAMPLES

       Remove the text search configuration my_english:

	   DROP TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION my_english;

       This command will not succeed if there are any existing indexes that reference the configuration in to_tsvector calls. Add CASCADE to drop
       such indexes along with the text search configuration.

COMPATIBILITY

       There is no DROP TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION statement in the SQL standard.

       ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION (ALTER_TEXT_SEARCH_CONFIGURATION(7)), CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION
       (CREATE_TEXT_SEARCH_CONFIGURATION(7))
