Error printing colored text - julio2000 - Feb-02-2020 

print('\033[31m' + 'Hello' + '\033[0m')  # this prints 'hello' in red text
So when I run this in Pycharm it works and prints out 'hello' in red text like I want it to.

But when I run the python file on my computer (so I just run the file, outside Pycharm), this is the output:

Hello

So it doesn't print the red text. Does anybody know why this is, and how to solve it?
