Thanks Chris ,

That's exactly what I was looking for. For anyone else who needs help
with this, here are my working examples, with a little explanation.

echo -e "\033[34m Contact List \033[0m";    <-  The "34m" part makes
Contact List a dark  blue color and  the  "0m" at the end  stops the
coloring. If I don't change it to 0, my prompt will also be  dark
blue.

If I use 31m instead of 34m, then Contact List will be red, instead of
dark blue,

echo -e "\033[31m Contact List \033[0m". I hope that helps someone.
