Syntax
Sets the default console foreground and background colors.
COLOR [attr]
attr
Specifies color attribute of console output
Color attributes are specified by TWO hex digits -- the first
corresponds to the background; the second the foreground. Each digit
can be any of the below values.
| 0 = Black |
8 = Gray |
| 1 = Blue |
9 = Light Blue |
| 2 = Green |
A = Light Green |
| 3 = Aqua |
B = Light Aqua |
| 4 = Red |
C = Light Red |
| 5 = Purple |
D = Light Purple |
| 6 = Yellow |
E = Light Yellow |
| 7 = White |
F = Bright White |
If no argument is given, this command restores the color to what it was
when CMD.EXE started. This value either comes from the current console
window, the /T command line switch or from the DefaultColor registry
value.
The COLOR command sets ERRORLEVEL to 1 if an attempt is made to execute
the COLOR command with a foreground and background color that are the
same.
Examples
Color 0A
Creates a Black background with
light bright green text, similar to many of the FTP, telnet, and
old BBS console screens.
