WEBVTT 00:00.640 --> 00:08.280 We can modify how our string draws using what are called attributes. 00:08.530 --> 00:14.160 So right now I have just the basic hello world example in. 00:14.240 --> 00:15.940 It says Hello everyone. 00:16.660 --> 00:21.190 So let's actually change how we draw this. 00:21.190 --> 00:22.360 Hello everyone. 00:23.130 --> 00:29.380 So to do that we're going to use attributes and to use attributes. 00:29.460 --> 00:38.040 All you have to do is you have to say at Tron or ADT are in. 00:38.430 --> 00:41.520 And then you can pick the attribute you want. 00:41.520 --> 00:47.120 So I would say stand out in doubt. 00:48.680 --> 00:49.410 OK. 00:49.600 --> 01:00.670 And everything everything we draw after this line this this attribute on we'll use this standout attribute 01:00.790 --> 01:03.830 to draw or run this. 01:04.180 --> 01:06.790 See how it changed how it drew. 01:07.080 --> 01:12.480 And now it's kind of has a black background with white text in the middle. 01:13.300 --> 01:16.520 And we can change or we can do more attributes 01:18.990 --> 01:26.910 say to you can you make it bold say 01:30.480 --> 01:32.420 this. 01:32.460 --> 01:39.330 Now it's it's hard probably hard to see but it's actually a little bit more it's a bit bigger. 01:39.540 --> 01:53.340 It's all and you can actually show you all the attributes you can actually use here. 01:55.370 --> 01:55.750 OK. 01:55.920 --> 02:05.640 So you actually have quite a few different attributes you can use and all you actually play around with 02:05.640 --> 02:16.060 it if you want but how you want to turn off attributes is through a t t r o f f. 02:16.110 --> 02:29.830 So if I wanted to turn off stand out keep hold and maybe draw this in say maybe on 02:32.690 --> 02:33.350 line 02:36.150 --> 02:37.650 and try this. 02:37.660 --> 02:47.120 So you see it's using the stand out and bold to draw the first one but just the bowl old to draw second. 02:47.570 --> 02:57.270 So that's kind of how we can draw and modify our text using attributes. 02:57.320 --> 03:04.700 And there's actually more attributes we can use here to get this 03:07.540 --> 03:11.030 and those attributes are actually coloreds. 03:11.080 --> 03:24.690 So how to draw colors is first we have to see if our council actually allows recolors So how we do that 03:24.750 --> 03:30.340 is a if not not has colors. 03:30.660 --> 03:36.450 So if we don't have colors unable for a con. we're going to exit out 03:39.060 --> 03:52.710 this Riskin say hey consul doesn't it's for CH colour's do that 03:59.360 --> 04:02.790 and all that and then we'll kind of just turns. 04:03.090 --> 04:07.430 OK so if it gets to here then we know it does sparklers. 04:07.520 --> 04:15.110 So how to start using colors is we call this starch color 04:18.820 --> 04:21.350 colors always come in pairs. 04:21.610 --> 04:29.000 So meaning there will be a color for the text and color for the background. 04:29.440 --> 04:35.620 And you kind of set to set some color pairs. 04:35.620 --> 04:36.740 We do this. 04:36.820 --> 04:53.690 So in that pair and we'll say one and let's go hopefully something you can read and see color red and 04:53.740 --> 04:57.440 put it on a black background color block 05:00.080 --> 05:09.290 and this and so essentially what this will do is it'll set the first color pair. 05:09.300 --> 05:17.800 So we get to choose what is to be red on black. 05:17.880 --> 05:20.700 They even see the values. 05:20.700 --> 05:25.390 Black is zero and red is one. 05:26.490 --> 05:31.260 And then this just sets the actual color pair. 05:31.410 --> 05:39.010 So you actually use the color pair we say Tron and then we'll see color. 05:39.850 --> 05:42.900 Pair and then we give it the one we want. 05:42.900 --> 05:46.850 So we're set one here so we're going to use one. 05:47.220 --> 05:49.050 And if I run this 05:56.210 --> 06:01.560 recolors sorry has cutlers. 06:02.770 --> 06:09.550 You'll see it's a black background with in this case it's inverted text. 06:09.580 --> 06:19.280 So the stand out makes it so that there's all kind of red red box around her text. 06:19.290 --> 06:20.850 It says hello or one. 06:21.170 --> 06:22.250 OK. 06:22.330 --> 06:31.030 So if you want to play around with this little bit more let me show you the colors that curses gives 06:31.030 --> 06:34.290 us here. 06:36.170 --> 06:47.940 So we have black green yellow blue magenta cyan so play around with the different colors and the different 06:47.940 --> 06:52.150 attributes and see kind of what you can make. 06:52.230 --> 07:00.840 So in the next lecture I want to go over making a new utility library just for cursus.
