=====================================

 

C++ : static void TCODConsole::setColorControl(TCOD_colctrl_t con, const TCODColor &fore, const TCODColor &back)
C   : void TCOD_console_set_color_control(TCOD_colctrl_t con, TCOD_color_t fore, TCOD_color_t back)
Py  : console_set_color_control(con, fore, back)

This function associates a background and a foreground color with a color control code.
There are 5 color control codes you can use. The color control code may be :

	TCOD_COLCTRL_1
	TCOD_COLCTRL_2 
	TCOD_COLCTRL_3 
	TCOD_COLCTRL_4 
	TCOD_COLCTRL_5

For python, remove TCOD _ : libtcod.COLCTRL_1
ParameterDescription
conThe color control code.
foreThe foreground color associated with this color control code. You can use color constants.
backThe background color associated with this color control code. You can use color constants.
Example :

C++ : TCODConsole::setColorControl(TCOD_COLCTRL_1,TCODColor::red,TCODColor::black);
      TCODConsole::root->printLeft(1,1,TCOD_BKGND_SET, "String with a %cred%c word.",TCOD_COLCTRL_1,TCOD_COLCTRL_STOP);
C   : TCOD_console_set_color_control(TCOD_COLCTRL_1,red,black);
      TCOD_console_print_left(NULL,1,1,TCOD_BKGND_SET, "String with a %cred%c word.",TCOD_COLCTRL_1,TCOD_COLCTRL_STOP);
Py  : libtcod.console_set_color_control(libtcod.COLCTRL_1,libtcod.red,libtcod.black)
      libtcod.console_print_left(0,1,1,libtcod.BKGND_SET, "String with a %cred%c word."%(libtcod.COLCTRL_1,libtcod.COLCTRL_STOP))
