# Display All The Terminal Colors
The following snippet of bash scripting will print out a nicely formatted
collection of all the terminal colors.
```bash
for x in {0..8}; do
for i in {30..37}; do
for a in {40..47}; do
echo -ne "\e[$x;$i;$a""m\\\e[$x;$i;$a""m\e[0;37;40m "
done
echo
done
done
echo ""
```
This is a great way to figure out the escape codes you need for coloring and
styling text in a bash script.
