Formatting output with colors

Hi,
I want to display a particular word with some color. But I have to choose that word at runtime based on some condition.
for eg: there are 3 words: str1, str2 and str3.
I have to print all the words, but str2 with yellow color and others with normal color ( ie no color ).
How to do this?
Regards,
Kalai

Hi,
Use the FORMAT keyword
eg.
FORMAT color 3.
write str3.
FORMAT color off.
Note :
FORMAT.
Additions:
1. ... COLOR n     [ON] or   ... COLOR       OFF
2. ... INTENSIFIED [ON] or   ... INTENSIFIED OFF
3. ... INVERSE     [ON] or   ... INVERSE     OFF
4. ... HOTSPOT     [ON] or   ... HOTSPOT     OFF
5. ... INPUT       [ON] or   ... INPUT       OFF
6. ... RESET
Effect
Sets or modifies the valid output format.
Notes
The formats set by FORMAT are effective from the next output operation to the list, i.e. from the next WRITE command or from the next new line.
The addition ON for switching on the relevant output format is optional.
You can also set the static additions ON, OFF and n (for COLOR) dynamically with = var (for further information, see end of this documentation).
Addition 1
... COLOR n [ON] or   ...COLOR OFF
Effect
Color of line background. n can have the following values:
Reward if helpful.

  • Formatted output with JAXB

    Hi, Please help me with the formatting of output XML file using JAXB. This is my client program that marshals xml content into xml file. This program is creating XML file with no indentation at all. I commented out the line
    m.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, Boolean.TRUE);
    still getting same xml file with no indentation. Am I doing anything wrong?
    Thanks in advance.
    try {
    // create a Validator
    Validator v = jc.createValidator();
    // validate the content tree
    boolean valid = v.validate( root );
    //logger.info("XML File Validated Successfully" );
         Marshaller m = jc.createMarshaller();

    Hi,
    try writing to the FileOutputStream directly.

  • Format output with printf

    I'm currently taking a Java programming class using Java version 1.5.0_06 for my class.
    I'm running into problems with the printf statements. Can someone help me figure out what's wrong with this statement?
    outFile.printf("%-26s $ %12.2f%n", "Assessed Value:", assessVal);
    Basically, I want the output to print, for example:
    Assessed Value:********* $ 1000000.00 (* denotes spaces)
    This is the error message I get when running it:
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems:
         The method printf(String, Object[]) in the type PrintWriter is not applicable for the arguments (String, String, double)
    Any help is appreciated.
    ntjava

    Well, opened list of arguments which is used by printf method, as well as autoboxing, are 1.5 features. So when you need to compile with an old java (1.4), opened list of arguments is replaced by array of Objects. And in this case you need to write something like
    printf("your format string", new Object[] {"some string", new Double(varDouble)});But in this case you need to check what java version do you use to compile it. Just execute
    java -versionYou can use -source argument to specify which version of java do you use (1.4 or 1.5) in your java sources.

  • Formatting hyperlinks with color background cells

    hello.. i need help figuring out how to fix this error i keep
    running into. I have a single cell in a table that i want to have a
    background and the cell has numerous hyperlinks. i created the
    background color in the single cell just fine, but now all the
    hyperlinks have a white background around them. the cell is all
    yellow, but the places that have hyperlinks are highlighted in a
    white background. how can i fix this? if i remove the hyperlinks
    everything looks just fine. if you need me to attach the code, let
    me know.

    Find the link style in your css and remove the background
    color.
    or you may have defined that color in your body code and it's
    overriding the
    link background.
    Also look for hover, active and visited.

    Dou you have a question ?
    The character and string escape sequences allow for the representation of some nongraphic characters as well as the single quote, double quote, and backslash characters in character literals and string literals:'\b'     /* \u0008: backspace       */
    '\t'     /* \u0009: horizontal tab  */
    '\n'     /* \u000a: linefeed        */

  • Formatted HTML output with Spry regions - is it possible?

    I have recently begun using the XML export extension in
    conjunction with an Access database to output dynamic data into a
    page with a Spry master/detail setup. So far, my simple example is
    going great, but I've run into a snag that I need some help with.
    To explain what I'm doing - it's a simple article page with
    the list of articles on the left with the title and date and the
    article title and full contents on the right hand side. So far it's
    all working very well, updating in real time when I click an
    article title on the left. The problem is the output with this one
    field which stores not only text, but also HTML formatting that is
    generated by a wysiwyg editor used on the article creation side of
    this little app. This HTML formatted content is the article body
    and is stored in a field named the same - "body". With traditional
    ASP, the HTML formatting displays as expected and all is well, but
    with Spry, it doesn't output formatted HTML, but instead shows the
    content and HTML code together as text. How can I get this one
    field ("body") to be output so all the HTML formatting is shown?
    This is my simple page example. Click through and you'll see
    what I mean.
    http://www.shoestodyefor.com/ajax.asp
    Here's the section of code in question regarding the output
    on that right hand panel where the body is displayed for each
    article:
    <div spry:detailregion="ds1">
    {title}<br />
    {entryDate}<br />
    <br />
    {body}
    /div>
    Is it possible to have that {body} section shown so the
    dynamically created HTML code from the wysiwyg editor is displayed
    correctly?

    The version of Spry that ships with Dreamweaver CS3 (Spry
    1.4) doesn't
    support the type of output created by the XML Export
    extension.
    This issue has been corrected in Spry 1.5, but no plans have
    been made
    public for integrating Spry 1.5 into Dreamweaver CS3. You
    would need to
    download Spry 1.5 from
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/.

  • [solved]pacman output piped to grep with color result?

    Hi.  Thanks for reading. I am looking for a command with the following function:
    1. It searches only the pacakge name, not the description.
    2. However, when a package's name matches the search pattern, it shows the description of this package as well.
    After searching in the forum, now I am using something like:
    pacman -Ss test_string | grep --color=always -B1 -v '^ ' | less -R
    It works nicely in terms of my two requirements. However, I could not get the color output (I have pacman color option) from pacaman even if I used less.
    On the contrary, the following command has normal color output
    ls --color | grep test_string | less -R
    Did I do anything wrong?
    Thanks...

  • Oracle Reports - Unable to generate report with colored image in bitmap mod

    Hi,
    I am using Oracle reports 6i.
    I am generating a post script[.ps] file using bitmap mode.
    The layout contains an image. The image is stored in oracle database which is colored image.
    But when the report is generated same is being generated with gray color.
    Could any one advise on resolving this issue? The objective is to generate the report with colored image and not gray or black&white

    What kind of images do you have? Reports only supports a few formats, e.g. JFIF. So, if you have JPG images with EXIF meta information in the header, you have to remove those first.
    when the report is generated same is being generated with gray color.What happens if you sent the output directly to the printer?
    And what happens if you create a PDF file instead of Postscript?
