This new script has variables which can be set according to preferences.
Please feel free to use and create your own color schemes.

- **Explanation of colors and variables**

The colors of the terminal are composed of 18 colors in 3 sections.

Section 3: text and background.

The basic colors are 8:

- Black
- Red
