    Change Text Color recursively

    Hello,

    I am in a process of making an adventure text-based game and I was wondering if it's possible to change the text color on the go. What I mean is that normally, your text would be white, but when you advance in the story (e.g. advance on lines), the old lines would get grey color.

    Is it even possible to change the color of the lines already printed in console?

    Thanks for any help.

    The only way for this to happen if for you to save each of your outputs somewhere, maybe a vector of strings, and you will start printing them from grey all the way up to white.

    I don't know if it possible to change the color of already printed text, but i don't think so.
