According to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5947742/how-to-change-the-output-color-of-echo-in-linux?rq=1#comment24883926_5947802, the format can be incorrect in some terminals with \e. Replacing it with \033 should be cross-terminal compatible.

The following is the output in a MacOS with ZSh:

Fix

  • After replacing \e with \033
