How can I put 2 different texts of 1 color each in a BAT file?

Question

How can I put 2 different texts of 1 color each? Because when I tried to put, for example // color B to a text and then I put color A to another text, I took color A, which was the code below and the one I took:

CODE:

.BAT:

Answer 1

Use ANSI escape codes, as were used in terminals and printers. There's an excellent demo batch file at GitHub. View it in Notepad++ or other code editor to see special characters, such as ASCII(27), ESC. BTW, add a pause for the last line, or the command prompt showing the output will quickly disappear.

For example, in a .bat file, enter echo ▼[31mRed▼[0m, where the triangle, ▼, is meant to be ESC to see the word in red letters. In Notepad++, that can be entered from the Character Panel (or Windows Character Map or BabelMap:

Note that the string <ESC>[31m sets text after it to red, and <ESC>[0m resets text color to default.

You can get the ESC as a variable if you prefer, so regardless of the text editor, you have options for inserting this type of character and composing your lines following the different color options and formatting, also the limitations relevant to the versions/systems.
