? how to add highlighting or color to Mac Terminal output

[jonnygto]

Does anyone know of a Fortran way to add highlights or color to Mac Terminal output text,
maybe with Write statement control codes of some kind, or system calls?

You can do it with ANSI escape codes in WRITE statements. Using Google or an equivalent, search for a string something like:

os x terminal ansi codes

Here's a simple example:

        character(len=1), parameter :: esc=char(27)
        print *,'Hello'
        print *,esc,'[','45m','Hello',esc,'[0m'
        print *,'Hello'
        end
