Make echo colorful with easier method. In bash, sh, fish, ksh and zsh. Which can help you print debug, warning, error message in shell scripts with meaningful colors, and make the output more readable.
Please note that certain colors will really depend on the environment, my demo is under a terminal called Terminator, you can simply install it via apt, yum, pkg or other package manager. Actually, all the colors display depend on the environment setting, but I just name/define name by the most common cases I know by far.
