Using cygwin on Windows involves using the windows CMD.EXE ‘DOS window’. This has 16 colours, most of which are far too dark for reading text on a black background, this page is a note for myself to remember how to change them.

Right-click on the title-bar, pick ‘Properties’ -> ‘Colors’, select ‘Screen Text’ and notice that one of the colour boxes is selected, write down which one it is (ie. count it in from the left) and note the ‘Red’, ‘Green’ and ‘Blue’ values for this colour (as you will need them later when things go wrong).
