I downloaded one here yesterday, color.exe, marked as for DOS.
Usage: color 15 2 2 This gives a green background and bright white characters. For the others, you can choose whatever background and character colors you want.
Don't use the cls command, because after using the color command, it will execute a cls command by itself, haha. I was messing with it until 2 in the morning last night, and this is the bit of "experience" I came up with, sharing it with everyone!
If there are any others that can change the colors under MS-DOS, please upload them too...
