Set the background of python console to an rgb value?

Question

I'm working on a little side project console-based python script. I'm using a module called rich to add colours but i was wondering if you could also set the background colour as well.

I know the color command exists but it's very limited. Any help would be appreciated!

This will change the background to yellow on supported consoles:

print("\033]11;#ffff00\007")

The pattern is: "\033]11;#rrggbb\007", where rr, gg and bb are the red, green and blue values in hexadecimal ranging from 0x00 to 0xFF.

Alright, I'll try this. I've also used hex before. – Spooky Sep 05 '22 at 05:40
