Yup, STDOUT is to the screen, unless reassigned.On Windows to have Perl search a text file and display all of the file on STDOUT but the matched words to show in color. I can do some regex. But I haven't a clue about how to color matched words or if it can be done on Windows. I know the Vim editor can do that. But I want to accomplish it on STDOUT using Perl. STDOUT is what normally prints to the command prompt screen, right?
As for printing in colour - I don't believe that the windows command processor, ie cmd.exe, is capable of printing in colour. You could install Cygwin(some unix tools for windows) & use bash(an alternative shell) in place of the standard windows shell, that may work.
Hope thats of some help
