Make echo colorful with easier method. Inbash,sh,fish,ksh andzsh.

Please note thatcertain colors will really depend on the environment, my demo is under a terminal calledTerminator, you can simply install it via apt, yum, pkg or other package manager. Actually, all the colors display depend on the environment setting, but I just name/define name by the most common cases I know by far.
