How do you print a string in MATLAB in color?

Question

Usually when you print a string in MATLAB:

disp('this will print black letters')

Can it be printed in color instead?

Answer 1

If you fprintf() to stderr, it can come out in another colour (depending on your preferences, I think).

There is undocumented functionality you can (ab)use to get more than this, though.

Answer 2

In MATLAB Central-File, I find this function: cprintf

I hope this solve your question.
