Hello! Does anyone know how can I write colored text to the console?

I have a c ++ example that works, but I can't make it work on obj
pascal

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i #include
<iostream> int main(){    std::cout << "\033[033;31m  red text" <<
std::endl;    return(0);}
Output:
red text

Obj pascal:
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i
writeln('\033[033;31m  red text'); 
Output:
\033[033;31m  red text

Thanks

Change the C escapes like \033 to proper Pascal writeln syntax using #
?

Thanks a lot marcov!
Now is working fine.

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i
writeln(#27'[31mred text');

I've made ansiCRT unit for that purpose. You may take a look at it

Hope it helps.
