Hi Bill, Here's a tutorial: https://www.lihaoyi.com/post/BuildyourownCommandLinewithANSIescapecodes.html Note the sentence: "once you print out the special code enabling a color, the color persists forever until someone else prints out the code for a different color, or prints out the Reset code to disable it." Here's a more detailed specification: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code And here's a conversation: http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/037 (see the first sentence, and then under the heading "Discussion") that might help you decide whether this approach will satisy your need in your particular circumstances of operating system, Python version, and terminal settings. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
