How to enable color options in ConEmu, similar to bash terminal?

In Linux bash terminal we can enable color.

Is it possible to achieve the same for ConEmu?


Solution 1:

Seems to me, your question is incorrect. You need to enable color in your console application, but not in ConEmu, because it is terminal, but not a shell. Refer to your shell/application manuals. For example, ls has special switch.

ls --color

There are also ANSI sequences, ConEmu supports them - you must enable two options (ATM they are on the Features page of Settings dialog)

  • Inject ConEmuHk
  • ANSI X3.64

Enabling colors in ConEmu

Of course, your application must be able to output ANSI codes to console. If they not - ConEmu can't do anything with them, because it is terminal, but not a shell.

Solution 2:

Have you looked in the Options dialog.
