Every time you startup the "Command
Prompt" you see a bunch of text on a white on black screen. If you're looking
for a little change or having trouble reading text using the current colors, you can
easily change colors on the fly using the "COLOR"
command:COLOR <background code><foreground code>
0 = Black 8 = Gray
1 = Blue 9 = Light Blue
2 = Green A = Light Green
3 = Aqua B = Light Aqua
4 = Red C = Light Red
5 = Purple D = Light Purple
6 = Yellow E = Light Yellow
7 = White F = Bright White
For example, to get a white on blue screen type:
COLOR 17
Of course, if you rather, you could press ALT+SPACE and
select "Properties | Colors" to change colors as
well.
