I think I should ask something important ... Are you using CodePlayground to test this? In this case, SL does not offer support for this. The way in which interpreters/compilers work here is particular: they execute the code and then return it as plain text (unless it is a WEB code) If you are trying to do it in Windows it will not work in the same way (as it is specified in the link that I sent). In this OS you must use an external library for it (inside the thread they quote Jansi and apparently if you have installed a Cygwin environment it will work using ANSI escape codes)

I tried ANSI codes but they only printed a string not changed the color of the text outputted from the console. Is there an important statement I’m missing.

In the Eclipse console you will not be able to run ANSI escape codes (or not without a plugin). Unfortunately I do not work with the IDE, so I can not offer much more help.
