Shortest answer EVER.
Longer answer:
Not right now. This has been suggested before, and has been shot down multiple times. Mostly because it conflicts with the feel of the mod. If we start adding colored text, then it no longer feels like the old school 80's text based computers that Dan200 and Cloudy are trying to emulate.(I say trying, but the computers already do so much more than what they were going for)

I thought I saw some function "prototypes" that did this discussed on IRC?

I'm not sure but you can't use colors in the terminal. I think that you can use them with printers though, not sure… :P/>/>
