0 = Black
1 = Blue
2 = Green
3 = Aqua
4 = Red
5 = Purple
6 = Yellow
7 = White
8 = Gray
9 = Light Blue
A = Light Green
B = Light Aqua
C = Light Red
D = Light Purple
E = Light Yellow
F = Bright White

Example 1 #include <stdio.h> int main() { /* Some list of combinations 0 = Black 1 = Blue 2 = Green 3 = Aqua 4 = Red 5 = Purple 6 = Yellow 7 = White 8 = Gray 9 = Light Blue A = Light Green B = Light Aqua C = Light Red D = Light Purple E = Light Yellow F = Bright White */ printf("This is a console color change program\n"); system("COLOR F2"); /* This will change the bgcolor F - White and textcolor to 2- Green */ getchar(); return 0; } Example 2 #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> int main() { system("COLOR FC"); printf("Welcome to the color changing application!\n"); printf("Press any key to change the background color!\n"); getch(); system("COLOR 6C"); printf("Now the background color is Yellow and Text Color is light Red\n"); printf("Press any key to exit..."); getch(); return 0; } Example 3 #include <windows.h> //This is the header file for windows. #include <stdio.h> //C standard library header file void SetColor(int ForgC){ WORD wColor; //This handle is needed to get the current background attribute HANDLE hStdOut = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE); CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO csbi; //csbi is used for wAttributes word if(GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo(hStdOut, &csbi)){ //To mask out all but the background attribute, and to add the color wColor = (csbi.wAttributes & 0xF0) + (ForgC & 0x0F); SetConsoleTextAttribute(hStdOut, wColor); } } int main() { printf("Test color"); //Here the text color is white SetColor(4); //Function call to change the text color printf("Test color"); //Now the text color is green return 0; }
