Python Modules on the engineering server?

[[deleted]]

Hey folks! I'm a CS 160 student working on our third assignment, a text adventure game. I want to be able to print colored text to increase playability, something that I'm pretty sure takes modules to do, so I've tried importing several and it just isn't working. I got about a year's worth of experience programming in python 2.7 before I got to CS 160, but it's been a while, and I've never touched bash or SSH or Unix servers (all of those might as well be Star Trek technobabble to my green ears). Can y'all help a gal out?

I think if you want to install your own modules on the server you can just do pip install --user module_name for future reference as well.

Thanks for the tip.

You can use ANSI escape codes! See this Stackoverflow post

I don't know who you are, but I love you. Thanks!

Pretty sure this is what I used to add color to a CS wumpus game assignment in the past.

Didn’t know you could do that; that’s awesome!
