Title: Re: How can I do color text output?
Thank you. You were right that the new project had a bunch of extra stuff in Targets and the old one had very little. When I removed the main.cp file from Targets, my new project built successfully. But why did the Targets get set up differently? I must have done something different when I set up and created the two projects, but I don’t know what. The Targets seem to show up in some automated fashion — I didn’t do anything to create them (I thought).
I sure appreciate the help!

Probably because your new project's target contains the main.cpp file and the old project's target does not.
Xcode does not build all files present in the project, but all files that are in the "Compile Sources" build step of your target.
Anyway, you can remove the main.cpp file from your project if you do not use it (that will remove it from all targets).

Thank you to those who sent suggestions for doing color text output. Having my C++ program create a simple RTF file worked very well and I did not need to use cocoa.
However, now I have a new problem. I tried creating a new project/program that I thought was identical to my original C++ program (but with a different name). The original builds and runs just fine, but the new one is failing with “duplicate symbol _main...” Can anyone tell me why this might be happening? Both projects seem to have a file main.cpp (which was generated automatically), which contains a main function. And both projects have .cpp files that I created that have a main function. Why does one build successfully and the other fail?
I’m so confused!

Hello,
I don’t think you can color the console output.
I think the simplest solution would be to create an RTF file:

I am new to Xcode and was wondering if someone could advise me about the best approach to writing a simple program that outputs text in color. It could be output to a file or to the console — I just need to be able to print the color output. For example, how can I write “hello world” with the characters in different colors? Can I do this using C++ and the console for output? Or must I use cocoa (if so, how?)? Or is there some simpler option? I only need to use a few basic colors (nothing fancy).
Thanks for any help!
