Customize Terminal Colors

Is there an easy way to customize Julia terminal colors directly? For example, can you type something like

setterminalcolors(default)

or

setterminalcolor(prompt, orange);
setterminalcolor(juliakeywords, brown);
# and so on

and then the settings get saved?

(Not looking for that package OhMyREPL or whatever its name is.)

You might want to check out

in standard julia docs.

Within the Julia space, perhaps Colors.jl or Crayons.jl would be of use?

Thanks, both of you. I will investigate them.

How could I have missed those environment variables?

I managed to change some colors (without any additional packages). Then I was looking to change the color of the Pkg prompt, and couldn’t find anything in the documentation. What is the exact name of the variable?
