How to Change Console Text Colour
 

Hi,

I'd like to change the console text color to green, and possible also the font. Any idea on how to accomplish this?

-thanks

Use the setterm command to set terminal atributes. See man setterm for more details.

Can't you enable a menubar by right clicking the terminal window? Then, under edit->profiles you can change colors.

thanks guys,

bigrigdriver,
it works momentarily if I append & to the colour, but then the effect wears away after 1 line, any ideas why?
