I means: please forgive me for having said that it does not work with
variables, because it is completely false.
Thanks one more time

Thanks a lot for your help. It works perfectly.
Indeed, one can read in the documentation concerning encodings:

Sorry, it works when using variables. Try for example:
col="[0;31m"
esc=

Not "interpret", no.

Thanks for your answer.
I have tried this slight modification, but it does not change anything on my
terminal.

Hi everybody,
I am new to Python, I try to understand how Python treats special
characters. For example, if I execute the following line in a shell
console, I obtain a colored string:
$ python -c "print '\033[30;44m foo \033[0m'"
So, it works.
Some time ago, I have made a lot of shell variables
