By 'without using system("color hex")' do you still mean "works on all systems magically"?

No, I mean can I write a chunk of code for this in a function for something, so yes. Is this why people love java?

You can write a function for it, yes. What you can't do is write a function that magically works on every possible platform. Console text color is inherently non-portable.

Wide portability without losing functionality is one of Java's selling points.
