I suggest using the tput command, rather than ANSI. It recognizes your terminal, and outputs the correct escape codes for whatever terminal you are using (eg. VT102, etc.). As well, if your terminal doesn't support a particular attribute, it doesn't output anything.
There are a bunch of examples, eg. http://www.linuxforum.com/linux-bash/clockt.html http://www.patoche.org/LTT/shell/00000080.html http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/1998/12/msg00<nobr>3<wbr></nobr> 23.html
