Hi i had started to program with Computercraft (File is "ComputerCraft1.75.jar")
and now i wanted to print colored text (eg. "green" instead of "green") but i don't know how i can paint the text.

You're after the functions in the term API, and the values in the colours API. For eg:

term.setTextColour( colours.green )
term.write("this is green")
