How can i control the colors of my programs output (write)? Escape sequences do not work. Is there an other way?

escape sequences should work when you include the crt unit.

Object Pascal programmers should get rid of their "component fetish" especially with the non-visuals.

In Windows 10, you need to enable processing of ansi escape control sequences programmatically by yourself. See this link how :

EDIT : Call SetConsoleMode with flag ENABLE_VIRTUAL_TERMINAL_PROCESSING :
