title: Color-coded syntax in terminal
body: <p>currently, the terminal I'm using to write my Python code is monochrome gray on black, but <a href="http://tstringer.github.io/vscode/2016/06/06/vscode-terminal.html" rel="nofollow">this</a> and <a href="https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/integrated-terminal" rel="nofollow">this</a> example show that you can have color coded syntax as well. I can't identify anything in the default settings which indicates an ability to use color coded syntax in the terminal. I'd like to use a terminal window as a Python interactive shell, so color coded text is a must. How do I do so?</p>
  
  <p>Visual Studio 2015 is so much easier in this regard, but I suppose that is because VSCode isn't an IDE. I just really like having an interactive shell to work with as I test new script.</p>
