How to change the color of a console line in C?

Question

so I’d like to know how do I change the color of that line... It’s a college project, and I’ve done research on other forums and everything, but I can never get an answer that works. I’m using the compiler Devc++ (5.11). When I say change the color I mean change both a single character and a string whole or one vector.

#include <stdio.h>

void main (){


    printf("Ola bom dia!");


    system("pause");
}

Answer 1

You can check the ANSI exhaust codes, then use these codes in the printf.

Thus:

#include <stdio.h>

#define VERMELHO     "\x1b[31m"
#define VERDE   "\x1b[32m"
#define AZUL    "\x1b[34m"
#define RESET   "\x1b[0m"

int main () 
{
    printf(VERMELHO     "Texto em vermelho"     RESET "\n");
    printf(VERDE   "Texto em verde"   RESET "\n");
    printf(AZUL    "Texto em azul"    RESET "\n");

    return 0;
}
