I'm trying to add colors to this bash script, can anyone help?
Here are the errors:
#!/bin/bash # Script to connect to the sprint network # Colors # ESC_SEQ=“\x1b[“ COL_RESET=$ESC_SEQ“39;49;00m“ COL_RED=$ESC_SEQ“31;01m“ COL_GREEN=$ESC_SEQ“32;01m“ COL_YELLOW=$ESC_SEQ“33;01m“ COL_BLUE=$ESC_SEQ“34;01m“ COL_MAGENTA=$ESC_SEQ“35;01m“ COL_CYAN=$ESC_SEQ“36;01m“ case "$1" in connect) pppd call sprint updetach echo -e $COL_GREEN"**You are now connected to the sprint network!"$COL_RESET ;; disconnect) killall pppd echo -e $COL_RED"**You have disconnected from the sprint network!"$COL_RESET ;; esac
Here are the errors:
root@mybox:~/Scripts# ./sprint disconnect ./sprint: line 6: 49: command not found ./sprint: line 6: 00m“: command not found ./sprint: line 7: 01m“: command not found ./sprint: line 8: 01m“: command not found ./sprint: line 9: 01m“: command not found ./sprint: line 10: 01m“: command not found ./sprint: line 11: 01m“: command not found ./sprint: line 12: 01m“: command not found “31**You have disconnected from the sprint network!“39

Sorry actually this is the error:

I was just doing that for testing...

I uncommented
# ESC_SEQ=“\x1b[“

This is working....but not exactly the way i'd like for variables:
#!/bin/bash # Script to connect to the sprint network # Colors #ESC_SEQ='\x1b[' #COL_RESET='; tput sgr0' #COL_RESET=$ESC_SEQ“39;49;00m“ COL_RED='\E[31;01m' COL_GREEN='\E[32;01m' COL_YELLOW='\E[33;01m' COL_BLUE='\E[34;01m' COL_MAGENTA='\E[35;01' COL_CYAN='\E[36;01m' case "$1" in connect) pppd call sprint updetach echo -e "$COL_GREEN**You are now connected to the sprint network!" ; tput sgr0 ;; disconnect) killall pppd echo -e "$COL_RED**You have disconnected from the sprint network!" ; tput sgr0 ;; esac

Hey there,
It may just be an issue with calling the variables.
If you change
to
it might work better with the "echo -e" line.
Hope that helps

Sorry I haven't tried it. What I changed is working fine now...I was just trying to replace the "tput sgr0" with a variable...unless someone knows how to do that. I couldn't get it working right...probably was going wrong with the single and double quotes.
If no one knows then I'll mark this as solved.
