Hi
I'd like to print color text and I've tried this:
but it didn't woked. When I changed 0 --> 1/4/5, the text "HI" --> bold/underline/blink, but when I changed 31 or 33 to other values, the color didn't change.
I don't have AIX box with me but could you please try as follows and let me know if this helps.
We need to add -e option with echo as it will enable interpretation of backslash escapes.
Thanks,
R. Singh

Wrong answer. It's AIX, not Linux.

What's the problem. Need to install something ???
The problem is your terminal. What you want to do, works well on any ANSI-capable terminal. E.g. in my xterm it works. But if you have some dumb terminal, or dtterm (I think - didn't check) this ANSI sequence will not work. If you want to use portable sequences, you have to consult termcap database, what it can provide to you, using infocmp and you can use tput command to make text bold, underline and so on.

Yeah, I tried using mobaxterm and it worked . It seems that securecrt doesn't support this.
Found "xterm" in securecrt, now it's OK. Thanks guy

Br,

I didn't do anything with mobaxterm, just installed and used.
In securecrt, I changed terminal from vt100 --> xterm ( Option / Session Option / Emulation ) and enable the ANSI color option
