This functionality has nothing to do with Ada.  It's a function of your
terminal.  For example ANSI terminals allow you to change the foreground and
background attributes (color, blinking, underlined, hidden, etc.) by means
of escape sequences.  These escape sequences can be output in any language,
including Ada.

You didn't say which platform, you're using, but DOS, Windows 3.1, Windows
95, Windows 98 and most UNIX flavors all have ANSI terminal capabilities.
Windows NT does not, but Jerry van Dijk's Ada on Win32 page (at
http://stad.dsl.nl/~jvandyk/) has an NT console package which allows control
of color on NT console applications written in Ada, based on an interface to
the NT console API.
