Try "help nansi" in dosemu.  The ansi driver used to be the main way to 
achieve this in the old days, although I never used it because it was 
noted for slowing down the computer.  I think the nansi driver is a lot 
faster.  

IIRC, the technique was to insert colour-setting escape-codes in the 
prompt string (a little help here: "prompt /?").  Try a google search.
