Console Palette Changer is a utility which lets a user edit and load customized color palettes for the Windows console (formerly called the DOS prompt). This utility is especially beneficial when used with a color directory lister such as my NDIR utility, the Cygwin ls utility, or any other similar tool; such color utilities show off the palettes in use in the various color schemes. There are two programs included in this package; Console Palette Changer - A Windows utility which lets you preview, edit, and save palette files, as well as opening new consoles with your selected palette. Note that, while this utility is very useful for creating and editing the palette files, it's easier to load an existing palette into a console using the consattr utility. consattr - A console (i.e., DOS) utility which allows one to load an existing palette into the current console. It does not provide any editing options, but it does change the current console. You can even put a consattr in your autoexec.bat (or 4start.bat for 4NT users), to start up a console with your desired palette
