Hello, Does anyone know of a simple way to change the colour of text output to the Listener? For example, I want the call: (format t “This is a red word.”) to print the sentence with the word “red” in red. _______________________________________________ Lisp Hug - the mailing list for LispWorks users lisp-hug@lispworks.com http://www.lispworks.com/support/lisp-hug.html
See hcl:write-string-with-properties http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/lw71/LW/html/lw-714.htm You'll also need to look at editor:make-face to get colors.

Hi John, Mark, Thanks for the help! I’ve verified that this works: (write-string-with-properties "Hello" '(:highlight :compiler-error-highlight)) Now I need to understand make-face.
