Text file colors
Hi everyone.
I want to create a text file using different colors, but i dont know how to do that.
I just can set the color for the -screen- output, using. for example:
printf "\033[32m"
printf "%-20s\n" "Orange colour"
printf "\033[mo"
but if i redirect the second line output to a text file, it doestn do it with colours...
does anybody now how to do that ?
