Change DOS color

Color attributes are specified by TWO hex digits -- the first corresponds to the background; the second the foreground. Each digit can be any of the below values.0 = Black8 = Gray1 = Blue9 = Light Blue2 = GreenA = Light Green3 = AquaB = Light Aqua4 = RedC = Light Red5 = PurpleD = Light Purple6 = YellowE = Light Yellow7 = WhiteF = Bright WhiteIf no argument is given, this command restores the color to what it was when CMD.EXE started. This value either comes from the current console window, the /T command line switch or from the DefaultColor registry value. The COLOR command sets ERRORLEVEL to 1 if an attempt is made to execute the COLOR command with a foreground and background color that are the same.
EXAMPLEColor 2A = Creates a green background with light bright green text, similar to many of the FTP, telnet, and old BBS console screens.Valid for a session only
