Function to color the output in Node.js console.log() . I didn't realize until after I wrote this that utils.inspect sorta does the same thing.

colorOutput.js

function colorOutput(text, color){

  color = color.toLowerCase();

  var colors = {
    'black':'0;30',
    'dgray':'1;30',
    'lgray':'0;37',
    'blue':'0;34',
    'lblue':'1;34',
    'green':'0;32',
    'lreen':'1;32',
    'cyan':'0;36',
    'lcyan':'1;36',
    'red':'0;31',
    'lred':'1;31',
    'purple':'0;35',
    'lpurple':'1;35',
    'brown':'0;33',
    'yellow':'1;33',
    'white':'1;37'
  }
 
  if(colors[color]){
    text = '\033[0' + colors[color] + 'm' + text + '\033[00m';
  }

  return text;

}
