Hello everybody

I would like to edit the login message. I want the message to appear in a color (green). I do:

Code:

cd /etc 
ee motd

Then it opens a windows with the welcome message, I would like the message in another color. What's the code?

You need to learn about ANSI color codes. Google should produce a couple results on the subject.

ee() does not have color. Nor does the system (n)vi().

vim, emacs, nano/pico are editors which support color.
