Use colors within scripts

for (( i = 30; i < 38; i++ )); do echo -e "\033[0;"$i"m Normal: (0;$i); \033[1;"$i"m Light: (1;$i)"; done

Within the script: Where number is defined from the output above

echo -e "\033[0;${NUMBER}mYOUR STRING YOU WANT IN COLOR"

Reset your color after messing with it: reset color after command changes it

echo -e "\033[0m"
