Colored Terminal Text

[blanky]

Hey guys, I'd like to know how to create colored text in Linux Console Programs. In windows, I had a header file with a class called MyColor.h ( http://blank.cjb.cc/code4/?a=sb&i=3 ). I'd like to know how to be able to do that in *nix. I'm using C/C++.

Here's a link to a Linux Journal artice about using colour on the Linux console in C:

I found it by Googling for: linux console terminal color
