Change printed text color in Idle?

Question

Is there a way to specify the color a text is printed within Idle for Python 3.2?

I'm looking for something like:

print("foo", "#fafafa")
print("bar", "#4f4f4f")

http://docs.python.org/library/idle.html#syntax-colors

To change the color scheme, edit the [Colors] section in config.txt.

Edit: As you've edited your question, here is an edited answer. See

for how to use terminal escape sequences in Python to change the color of things.

Will they work in IDLE? I don't know. But they will work in most terminals.
