Are you talking about xterm? If so have a look at xtermset, which will probably not be installed. There are some other similiar packages which also change fonts and colours in a running xterm. The xterm-title mini howto might also be useful. Also if you just want some basic font options hold down the control key and press the right mouse button. ANSI escapes will work too, but you should be able to find an existing document with a quick google search. Bare in mind that ANSI isn't portable and if your planning on distributing your work you might be better off with ncurses or termios. > How do I put color in my windows?
