你可以使用转义序列，如果你的终端支持的话。例如:

echo \[\033[32m\]Hello, \[\033[36m\]colourful \[\033[33mworld!\033[0m\]

你可以直接编写ANSI转义代码来控制颜色，也可以使用诸如{fmt}这样的库来提供api。

例如:

#include <fmt/color.h>

int main() { 
  fmt::print(fg(fmt::color::crimson) | fmt::emphasis::bold,
             "Hello, {}!\n", "world");
}

打印

大多数现代终端都支持ANSI转义序列，但您可以使用terminfo数据库进行检查。

我知道这个问题很老了，但我把这个答案贴出来给未来的读者。我用c++写了一个用于彩色输出的库。这使用操纵者，使工作容易支持跨平台，但没有在这里测试是如何使用这个，

#include "srilakshmikanthanp/ANSI.hpp"

using namespace srilakshmikanthanp;

3位和4位颜色:

// background
std::cout << ansi::BGyellow;
// foreground
std::cout << ansi::FGblue;
// output
std::cout << "Blue on yellow";
// reset
std::cout << ansi::reset;

8位颜色:

// background
std::cout << ansi::BGcolor(157);
// foreground
std::cout << ansi::FGcolor(100);
// outpt
std::cout << "8 bit color";
// reset
std::cout << ansi::reset;

24位颜色:

// background
std::cout << ansi::BGcolor(0, 255, 0);
// foreground
std::cout << ansi::FGcolor(0, 0, 255);
// output
std::cout << "24 bit color";
// reset
std::cout << ansi::reset;

字符串:

使用ansi::str可以很容易地将这个操作符转换为字符串

std::string BGyellow = ansi::str(ansi::BGyellow);
std::string FGblue = ansi::str(ansi::FGblue);
std::string reset = ansi::str(ansi::reset);

std::cout << BGyelow;
// foreground
std::cout << FGblue;
// output
std::cout << "Blue on Yellow";
// reset
std::cout << reset;

你可以在github上找到更多的信息:)

在你输出任何你需要的颜色之前，确保你在一个终端:

[ -t 1 ] && echo 'Yes I am in a terminal'  # isatty(3) call in C

然后你需要检查终端能力，如果它支持颜色

在使用terminfo(基于Linux)的系统上，您可以获得支持的颜色数量为

Number_Of_colors_Supported=$(tput colors)

在使用termcap(基于BSD)的系统上，您可以获得支持的颜色数量为

Number_Of_colors_Supported=$(tput Co)

然后做出决定:

[ ${Number_Of_colors_Supported} -ge 8 ] && {
    echo 'You are fine and can print colors'
} || {
    echo 'Terminal does not support color'
}

---

顺便说一下，不要像之前建议的那样使用ESC字符着色。 使用标准的终端调用功能，将为您指定特定终端支持的正确颜色。

正如你所看到的，它有更多的功能，比如临时、无限期地设置背景颜色，以及其他功能。我也相信它对初学者更友好，更容易记住所有的函数。

#include <iostream>
#include "COLORS.h"

int main() {
  std::cout << SetBackBLU << SetForeRED << endl;
  std::cout << "I am red text on a blue background! :) " << endl;
  return 0;
}

只需在项目中包含头文件，就可以使用彩色终端输出了。

试试我的标题这里一个快速和简单的方法来着色文本:Aedi的颜色标题

Escape-Sequence-Color-Header

在Unix中使用c++为输出着色!!

文本属性选项:

ATTRIBUTES_OFF, BOLD, UNDERSCORE, BLINK, REVERSE_VIDEO, CONCEALED

颜色选择:

BLACK, RED, GREEN, YELLOW, BLUE, MAGENTA, CYAN, WHITE

格式:

通用格式，在$变量$中包含你想要的值

COLOR_$Foreground_Color$_$Background_Color$
COLOR_$Text_Attribute$_$Foreground_Color$_$Background_Color$
COLOR_NORMAL  // To set color to default

e.g.

COLOR_BLUE_BLACK // Leave Text Attribute Blank if no Text Attribute appied
COLOR_UNDERSCORE_YELLOW_RED
COLOR_NORMAL

用法:

只是使用流的颜色，你想在输出文本和 在输出文本后再次使用以将颜色设置为正常。

cout << COLOR_BLUE_BLACK << "TEXT" << COLOR_NORMAL << endl;
cout << COLOR_BOLD_YELLOW_CYAN << "TEXT" << COLOR_NORMAL << endl;
