}
}

How can I make that text print out blue?

Java Print Console

Answer 2

Use Swing or the Terminal in Linux. Java strives to be cross-platform so colored text in the OS Terminal / console is not supported without custom code.

Answer 3

This is not something that is not supported by Java but can be achieved using 3rd party addons. See here for more info: http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javaqa/2002-12/02-qa-1220-console.html
