color formating of the output about qtconsole

[ccordoba12]

Hey @lorcat, thanks for reporting. I don't understand what you mean by this

I would like to have a control of custom color text output of the commands

Could you post a screenshot to better understand your point?

This is how I understood the question:

In the terminal, one can use the special ANSI color codes (e.g. \e[1;31m) to set the current color of the text. You can use this to add colors to your text output. Does QtConsole support ANSI?

I think QtConsole does support ANSI codes to some degree. For example, this works:

print("\033[1;32;40m Bright Green  \n")

To work more easily with colors, python ships with the colorama module. Try this:

import colorama
from colorama import Fore
# strip=False disables some windows specific conversion that qtconsole doesn't support
colorama.init(strip=False)
print(Fore.GREEN + 'This text is in green')

Hi! Sorry for the late response. Yes, the question would be - is there a way to control color output of the text within the qtconsole similar to what is done in linux terminal.

I see that stuff output within logging.error() or warning is highlighted in red, info() comes in blue.

Can we control individual colors like here:
