Want terminal colors in command line php scripts?
This should take care of that.
<?
$_colors = array(
 'LIGHT_RED' => "[1;31m",
 'LIGHT_GREEN' => "[1;32m",
 'YELLOW' => "[1;33m",
 'LIGHT_BLUE' => "[1;34m",
 'MAGENTA' => "[1;35m",
 'LIGHT_CYAN' => "[1;36m",
 'WHITE' => "[1;37m",
 'NORMAL' => "[0m",
 'BLACK' => "[0;30m",
 'RED' => "[0;31m",
 'GREEN' => "[0;32m",
 'BROWN' => "[0;33m",
 'BLUE' => "[0;34m",
 'CYAN' => "[0;36m",
 'BOLD' => "[1m",
 'UNDERSCORE' => "[4m",
 'REVERSE' => "[7m",
);
function termcolored($text, $color="NORMAL", $back=1){
 global $_colors;
 $out = $_colors["$color"];
 if($out == ""){ $out = "[0m"; }
 if($back){
 return chr(27)."$out$text".chr(27).chr(27)."[0m".chr(27);
 }else{
 echo chr(27)."$out$text".chr(27).chr(27)."[0m".chr(27);
 }//fi
}// end function
echo termcolored("test\n", "BLUE");
