Color in Windows CLI?

[Spudster3@gmail.com]

Does anyone know how to make PHP display colors in the CLI (Command
Line Interface)? I've tried almost everything including ANSI.SYS under
command.exe. I would like to find a way to do it under cmd.exe, I know
it will do colors under Linux in CLI using codes like "←[0;34mtest
←←[0m←" for Blue, but I need something to work under Windows.

Thanks!

If you can somehow get the Win32 module to work, the functions your
need are GetStdHandle() and SetConsoleTextA ttribute(). Both are in
kernel32.dll I believe.
