Coloring text is very simple, the
Ink command is what you need:
ink rgb(255,0,0),0
print "Red Text"
ink rgb(0,255,0),0
print "Green Text"
ink rgb(0,0,255),rgb(255,255,255)
print "Blue Text"
wait key : end
Note on line 7 we also set the background color to white but nothing happens, to see the background color you need an extra command
Set Text Opaque
set text opaque
ink rgb(255,0,0),0
print "Red Text"
ink rgb(0,255,0),0
print "Green Text"
ink rgb(0,0,255),rgb(255,255,255)
print "Blue Text"
wait key : end
...while
Set Text Transparent will turn the background colors off and allow what's behind the text show through. This is on by default.
box 0,0,200,80,rgb(255,0,0),rgb(0,255,0),rgb(0,0,255),rgb(255,255,255)
set text opaque
ink rgb(255,0,0),rgb(0,255,255)
print "Opaque Text"
set text transparent
ink rgb(0,255,0),rgb(255,0,255)
print "Transparent Text"
set text opaque
ink rgb(0,0,255),0
print "Opaque Text agan."
wait key : end
As for tutorials this is a start:

Or maybe you could nose around in the CodeBase area.
Hope this helps
