When I run a CLI application, I'm wanting to know how to change the color of the text displayed. Example: $this would come out equivalent to <font color="red">. I've looked around on google and can't find nothing. Any help or direction of where to look would be very much appreciated.
On a side note. Don't criticize about me using CLI with PHP, I know its not the best practice. But I'm wanting to learn it.
FIX:
Download:

After downloading, run make.bat.
Go to start->run type in regsvr32 dynawrap.dll
Then.
Make a bat file. Right Click->Edit.PHP Code:<?PHP
$dw = new COM('DynamicWrapper'); // needs dynwrap.dll (regsvr32 dynwrap.dll)
// register needed features
$dw->Register('kernel32.dll', 'GetStdHandle', 'i=h', 'f=s', 'r=l');
$dw->Register('kernel32.dll', 'SetConsoleTextAttribute', 'i=hl', 'f=s', 'r=t');
$dw->Register('kernel32.dll', 'SetConsoleTitle', 'i=s', 'f=s', 'r=l');
// get console handle
$ch = $dw->GetStdHandle(-11); // -11 = STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE
$dw->SetConsoleTextAttribute($ch, 14);
echo 'This is yellow text!';
$dw->SetConsoleTextAttribute($ch, 7);
echo 'Back to normal gray!';
?>
Type
Code:path to php folder -f path to php file made above.
